Dear Rhonda, So sorry to read about your Mom. She was a sweet lady. She and your Father were some of the nicest people I have ever known. When I think about working at Hunter I always think of your Dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

One of the 'Saints' at White Bluff Presbyterian. She enlisted my help in teaching VBS and Sunday School the year I graduated from high school. When I raised my own children at WBPC, Ms Nellie was still loving and supporting the youth of the church. We will miss her quiet and faithful strength. Dawn DeCamp

Nellie was one of our very favorite people since we first met her at WBPC over 20 years ago. Her gentle nature and devotion to God and His church were among her many charasteristics that endeared her to us. We will miss her, and we will always remember her with love and fondness.
