My thoughts and prayers are with the family. So very sad to learn of Nana’s passing; it has been just 2 years since we lost John. My earliest memories of Nana go back to 1958-1959 when John and I became friends, and they were still living at Janie. Over the years I spent a lot of my time at the Price’s, and Nana was the typical bratty little sister. As often happens we lose that close connection later in life, but my love, respect, and gratitude for this family never waned. I miss each of them- Herb, Mrs. Price, John, and Nana. May they rest in the loving arms of our Savior.

Oh gosh! I hated to read this. Anita was such a special lady. She worked for my family doctor and took such good care of not only me and my husband, but my Mother as well. My Mom thought there was nobody like Anita. She was an amazing lady with a huge smile and laugh who will be missed by many. My condolences to her family and friends.❤️💔❤️
