Nell retired from Tri-County Senior Services in 2005. After retiring she spent her time doing the things she loved until Alzheimer's made that difficult, living out her final 3 years at Terrace Palms Nursing Home in Clewiston Florida. Nell enjoyed gardening and her favorite flower was the yellow rose. She also very much enjoyed knitting, crafting and spending time with her family and friends. For a period she also raised doves, loving the sounds of their cooing. Nell was an amazing cook and baker, filling the house with delicious candy, cookies and fudge during the holidays. She was well known for her generosity and kind heart, always reaching out to help others in need.
