Melvin, I’m so sorry to hear about Nina. She was a sweet lady and I always enjoyed visiting with you both when Clyde and I were together. Hope you are well. My prayers are with you and your family.
Nina, I loved the sound of your laugh! It makes me smile at just the thought of hearing it … thanks for being a bright spot in our lives.

The nights at medicalodges will never be the same without Nina. She made our nights so much brighter with her witty comments and then devilish laugh. I am thankful for getting to know Nina and having the privilege of caring for her. Thank you for sharing her with all of us!
Dear Becky and family,
We are so sorry for the loss of your Grandmother and Mother. I know you all must have wonderful memories of her..we are thinking of your family at this sad time.
Theresa and Eric
Nina is greatly missed by many at Medicalodges. I will never forget the many dances I got to have with her. The many phrases she loved to say, ’Oh, Sugar, Oh Piddle Pot, and many more. The many nights of helping us ’file paperwork’. There were many memories made and I was so thankful to be part of them. And most of all, it was such a privilege to take care of a wonderful woman! God Bless!
So sorry to hear about Nina passing. We sure will miss her. You have our deepest sympathy.
