Nettie Lou’s life was fiercely dedicated to her family. She raised five children with a loving smile and a strong spirit. Despite her small stature, she had a fierce and feisty personality that commanded immense respect. She was known to be the luckiest lady in the room, whether it be a game of bingo, a raffle, or a cake walk, Nettie Lou was going to walk away with the prize.
A generous and hospitable woman, whether she was preparing countless family meals or sneaking her grandchildren one too many sweet treats, she always ensured that her family was well-fed and well-loved. No visit to “Granny and Papa’s” was complete without a hug and a kiss. She adored her grandchildren and cherished the routine family gatherings that brought everyone together.
Nettie Lou will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Her memory will live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
