Dear girls,
Your mother was a very special lady —
always with a smile that spread good feelings.
You’re in my thoughts.

Nola was always such a warm caring person. I met her through 4H. Tom had known her and liked her for many years before that. She will be missed by many. You have our deepest sympathy.
I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed your mom
Nola loved judging 4-H county fairs! She would often drive a car load of 4-H judges to counties for the all day event. Her enthusiasm inspired many youth and adults.
Sorry for your loss! Nola was a great neighbor to my mother and father for years! Hugs to the family.
My deepest condolences. Nola was such a sweet woman. I got to know her very well in the years I worked at Meadowview after Carl had passed. She would sit with me for hours chatting about family, friends, and life in general. I’ll always remember her and those fond memories.
Such a beautiful woman. I have many wonderful memories of her from Elijah Buell and Meadowview Pool days. Our sympathies to you and your families.
Missy and Meme, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Love of God the Father and the Holy Spirit be with you! I am sorry for the loss of your mom. It was nice to know your mom working at Buell and also the help with 4-H. It was fun to see her at your games also. She rest in peace now. She sins no more. She awaits the resurrection of the body and life everlastign when Christ comes. Peace be with you. God’s love endures for ever! Take care!
She lived next to my mother. Her mother in law, was 4 H leader for my kids. She was a great gal, as was Carl to my folks on Skyline Drive, So sorry for your loss of someone great to know. Much Sympathy.
She was a fun lady
Our deepest sympathy ?❤️?
