The woman I called sister
Could make me smile when times are blue
The woman I called sister
Was someone very true.

The woman I called sister
By choice, is My Dear Friend
The woman I called sister
Was there until the end

The woman I called sister
Was a blessing from God above
The woman I called sister
Is the sister that I'll always love

ALL THESE THINGS ARE STILL TRUE TODAY, THINKING OF OUR TIME TOGETHER MAKES ME SMILE.

  I STILL MISS YOU SO LOLA, SO MANY TIMES I WANT TO SHARE THINGS WITH YOU OR JUST TO HEAR YOU TELL ME EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT. MAY THE ANGELS CONTINUE TO WATCH OVER YOU & GOD KEEP YOU WRAPPED IN HIS ARMS. 
I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH MY SISTER & FRIEND. 

FOREVER,
JEWEL

Sheila, Bruce and Sherry,

I was in shock at the sudden passing of my dear sister Lola. But I thank God, we had so many years of sharing with one another...laughter, tears and all. We all loved her. But God loved her best. She is resting in peace.

Love,
Aunt Jollie

I love my Aunt Lola. I have always admired and appreciated her honesty, realness and love of family.  I always enjoyed listening to her talk, and have many fond memories of her, my mom and aunties talking about life and dropping pearls of wisdom. Aunt Lola is truly missed. I pray God comforts in his loving embrace Sheila, Bruce and Sherry; her grandchildren and great grandchildren; her brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews and all those who loved her and were blessed to know her. Matthew 5:4 says "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." Lord, we need you now and thank you for Aunt Lola.
Love,
Your niece Jo Jo

God promised to comfort us during this time, and I pray that you will stand on his promise and be comforted. You are in our prayers. In loving memory of lovely Lola Mae Nelson.

Sister Sheila Roberts

The Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church expresses our sorrow in the passing of your mother.  You are in our thoughts and prayers.  May God give you peace that surpasses all understanding.

To Sherry Nelson and family, you are in my prayers and thoughts. Please accept my condolences.

Ms Sherry, although I never met her,  I'm sure the beautiful personality inside and out in you is due to a reflection of Ms. Lola Mae and the loss of a mother is not easy.  God has eased her pain in his own way and during these trying times I have learned that.  May he ease you pain in knowing she is by his side in glory.  God Bless you and your family.

Dear Sheila & Family:  Heartfelt condolences & deepest sympathy to each of you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all on the lose of your mother. I pray for your continued blessings and strength to the family.

My sister Lola  gave me guidence wnen I went to live with her after I graduated school. She will always have a special place in my heart, and her children also. I will continue to pray for her children , Grands and Great grands also. and I love you all very much.  love aunt Louise and family. Blessed are the poor in heart for they shall see God.  Amen

  There is a lot of love in the world, But there's nothing like a sister's love. The love we shared was like Mother, Sisters & Friends.The love we shared was so deep. It's so deep that nothing can take it away.
Even tho you're far away among the stars, You're still so close right here in my heart. 
I'll Miss You,
Jewel

A very sweet spirit angle that my family and I will truly miss. Stay strong Shelia, Bruce and Sherry. God loves you... you will be in our prayes
