This little spitfire will be greatly missed. She was a one of a kind. I loved listening to her stories and helping her pick out her outfit of the day. You will forever be missed.

I loved working with Nadine over the 30+ years that I knew her. When we would do a semi-annual review it would always lead to other topics that would show her true love for her family. Sorry for your loss. John
