I love her so much she was  An amazing woman She loved and took care of everybody around her she was always smiling She could light up the room  I just miss talking to her But I will never forget her For the love she shared with me

Mrs. Schumaker was such a sweet Christian lady. We met her family ai South First Christian Academy and church.  God gained an Angel!! Prayers to all the family. 
Love, The Vasquez and Bradshaw Families 

Dear Momma Nell,  We met back when I worked for a security company in the late 1970's.  You made an impression on me as a strong willed business woman who ran a tight ship. Your laugh was contagious.  

Rest in peace, you made a difference.

My sweet Aunt Nell will be so missed! Growing up across the driveway from her was so much fun! She used to be the best playmate ever. If she wasn’t driving us around in the front of a tractor, she was taking us to play in the sand at the pit, or indulging our every request while we played in the game room. There aren’t too many people in the world that ‘just love’ you and she surely loved me and I loved her back! “I JUST LOVE YOU Ashley girl, and I JUST LOVE YOU my Aunt Nell”

Larry,  I have so many fond memories of you from back in the days when you were just my cousin Buster with tons of misinformation to share with his little cousin. Then you married a hometown girl. Although we lived far apart, I saw you with Nellowen and your family often enough to recognize your bond and saw it strengthen with your love of the Lord. This love is what will see you through your loss.  My best to you always, Karen

Nellowen was the baby of our family. When Mother and Daddy moved permanently to Florida, the four of us would visit every year for a week .. lots of talking , always laughter especially with Kay and her jokes. When both parents died, we continued meeting together somewhere each  year… then Kay was gone and last year Bobbie passed and I am left with treasured memories of all those visits together.   No one can take the place of sisters.  I will miss the  phone calls, news of the family and funny stories about the great grands, and always ending with “ I love you Dot”.

Nellowen was a wonderful friend. She was a lady sho loved our Lord and Savior. It was a blessing to know her. She will be missed  deeply. 

Oh, Mrs. Nellowen.  😭 I’ll miss your visits to my work, your hugs, your funny stories about your trips with Mr. Larry, and how proud you were of your kids, grandkids and greats! RIP, I’m so happy you aren’t hurting anymore. Special hugs and prayers for Mr. Larry. God, please wrap your arms around this huge family and help comfort them as only you know how, in Jesus Name, Amen
