Dear Janie, Craig. Marsha, and all Nina's children:

Bill and I have so many fond memories of Nina!!  She was by far the best neighbor on the block!  When we moved into this house almost 30 years ago, Nina and Bob were among the first neighbors to welcome us to the neighborhood!!  When both our sons were born, they were the first to come see the newborns!  When we suffered a house fire in 1995, Nina and Bob took it upon themselves to personally contact every resident on the street to take up a collection for us!

Over the many years that we have known Nina and Bob, Bill would assist Bob with projects around the house,  While Bill would be busy helping Bob, Nina would be in the kitchen baking her world famous cinamon rolls for our family!

In 1999 when I lost my nephew trageicly, I literally ran across the street to tell Nina.  She instinctively pulled out her Bible and read comforting passesges, and prayed for me!!

After Bob passed away, Bill and the boys began to do chores around Nina's house which Bob had previously done, such as replacing ligh bulbs, and putting up the outdoor Christmas lights!  Nina was always grateful, and paid them for their work, AND baked cinnamon rolls!  Eventhough Bill would insist it wasn't necessary to be paid!

When we took yearly vacations we could always count on Nina to keep an eye on the house for any suspicious activity!

She would call us once a week to see how we were doing.  If she did not see any cars around the driveway or garage, she would call just to make sure that everyone was allright!

Nina knew my boys from the time they were newborns, up through their high school graduation!  She also witnessed their Eagle Scout rank.

Nina even attended Matthew's wedding!  When his daughter, Cheyenne was born, she wanted to meet Cheyenne!  Nina always asked how Matthew & Cheyenne were getting along, after he moved into his own apartment.

Nina always had our best interest in mind, and told us she prayed for us everyday - especially when we were on vacation!

We have been truly blessed to have had Nina as such a wonderful and caring neighbor and friend!

Nina was "one of a kind".  The neighborhood will never be the same without her!

Much Love,
William (Bill), Karen, Thomas, Matthew, and Cheyenne Benigar
