Sadly we were unable to attend the wake for this awesome lady, but did go visit her buddy, CB, in the nursing home. Feel this was a great way to honor her love of visiting there. Food pantry items will be given, as always, with her devoted service to that ministry in mind as well. NBC won't be the same w/out this lady...keep her legacy alive by doing things she'd love to see carry on!

To Nettie Lou's family -- she was such a wonderful lady, always treated my mother, Connie Brown, with so much respect, after she married E. W. Brown in 1969. And, even after his death, she remained friends with my mother, visiting her at Harvest Manor Nursing home up until my mother died. Nettie Lou was a Godly, christian woman and I admired her greatly. May God continue to bless and comfort you during this time of loss.
