Loving Memories of Nellie Mae Clardy NELLIE MAE CLARDY, the daughter of Lindsey and Birdie {Pollard} Shirdon, was born on December 27, 1929 in Christian County, Hopkinsville, Kentucky. She was the youngest of four children to this union. NELLIE found the love of her life when she met James E. Clardy. They united in marriage and moved to Indianapolis, Indiana. To this union one son was born, Larry Clardy. NELLIE was a dedicated and hard worker, having a long work life. She was last employed with Tuchman Cleaners where she retired as a press operator. NELLIE was a member of Eastern Star Baptist Church and loved riding the church bus until her health failed. NELLIE was a quiet and reserved, loving woman who enjoyed life.
