Nita was a person who doted on her family. She enjoyed family get-togethers and had a passion for gardening – which is obvious by her beautiful trees and shrubs. She was a religious person who never missed the opportunity to attend church. She loved to dress up, have her nails and hair done just so, and adored anything in the color red.

Funeral Service will take place on Tuesday, October 15th at 2 pm in the chapel.
