Mary Alice Nelson

She is survived by her son Jeffrey Nelson and his wife Patti; sister Virginia Altmann; brother Gordon Linzmaier and his wife, Donna; also several nieces, nephews and two grand doggies.

Mary was born and raised in Wisconsin, and then married her loving husband William Kenneth Nelson, in the chapel at Travis Air Force Base in northern California on Jan 16, 1954. After returning to Wisconsin for a short period of time, they moved to southern California, where she worked as a nurses aid and home health care assistant.

After retiring, she enjoyed playing bingo and became quite a winner when it came to her favorite pastime.

Mary was well loved and will be greatly missed, but we take immense comfort in knowing that she loved her Savior and is in His loving arms in heaven.
