I had the pleasure of cleaning Nadine's house, but it was more than business. I adore her, I loved her so much. I was always amused how she got up and put her make up on and did her hair. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

Worked with Nadine at the Bank of Lincoln shortly after graduating from high school. I have never known a more kind, thoughtful lady. Prayers for comfort for the family.
