"Memorial:I worked with Nadine for 3 years at The Canteen (up until this last November). She was truly an extravagant woman from her clothing to her personality. For some time she was the only friend I had to confine in. Looking back I can recall her struggle with her health but I assumed her hard work at the Bar kept her young. I think she got the best of life in being a Mother, Grandmother and social friend. I will truly miss her and I will always find it incredibly hard to believe she's actually gone. I pray now she knows what she really meant to everyone and that she may be at peace and I wish the best to her family."

"Memorial:Nadine - I am going to miss you dearly. I thank God for giving me such a wonderful friend. There aren't enough words to explain how you have touched the lives of those around you. I can tell you that there will be many tears shed until we can come to terms as to why He took you so suddenly, but I thank my lucky starts that I have many fun and happy memories to remember you by. I guess God needed an angel and you were at the top of the list - let me tell you, he chose the best! I will never forget you. PS - Thank you for being such a wonderful friend to my Mom - I know that she will miss you to no end. Until we meet again, Heather"

"Memorial:To my special friend Nadine: All I ask is why, why dear God have you taken my special friend? There are a lot of emotions you have to go through when you lose someone as special as you. I know you wouldn't appreciate the tears that continue to pour down my face but only you could relate to my inner most feelings, and I thank you for that. I also thank you for teaching me the true art of friendship. One that is trusting, unselfish, and loving. How fortunate I was to have had you a part of my life. Until we hug again . . . . "Love You""
