Ann Waller wrote a sympathy message

“Diana, David, Michelle and your families, It is with sadness that I extend my heartfelt condolences to all of you on the loss of your mother. I will always have fond memories of “Comara Nina”. She was so dearly loved and always welcomed in our home. Growing up, she called me “Annetta”. She was the only person that ever called me that name and I will always remember how special she made me feel. I hope you find comfort in your memories during this difficult time. Anna (Rodi) Waller and family”
