She had a big heart, her door was always open to anyone in need and everyone was welcome in her home. She will be fondly remembered and sadly missed by all who knew her. Her family would like to extend their gratitude to the staff at Hilltop Manor (Arnolds Cove), Lions Manor (Placentia) and Dr. Albert O'Mahony Memorial Manor (Clarenville) for the care provided to Nita during her periods of residency at the Manors. As well, a thank you to the many relatives and friends that visited during her stay at the Manors. A very special thank you to Linda Slade (niece) and Shirley Hollett (niece) for the care and compassion extended to Nita during her lengthy illness. You both were truly wonderful. Donations may be made to the United Church, Swift Current or the NL. branch of the Alzheimer's Society.
