So sorry to hear of her passing.
When I first came here in 1982 she was so wonderful to work with on the Ellipse. I will always remember her encouragement and kind words that she imparted to all of us NPS brats!
Nelson is who got me the storekeeper job in the Executive Residence...
Sharon, my prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
