Condolences

Condolence From: Beth Cobb
Condolence: Families and Friends of Mrs. Nelsen.
our family began with your and Mom's friendship. The friendship has been strong due to both of you having a deep and abiding love of our Lord and his Catholic Church.
The two you started a beautiful tapestry. Your dear Einer and my Dad soon started adding colors. the love of you and Mom shared allowed my Grandparents to add their colors. Next came Sabrina, my sisters and I.
The threads do Einer and my Grandparents became to and end however their colors intermingled with ours and their love was not forgotten.
As we all went into adulthood Chris, Joe, Mike, and Chris started adding their colors.
Before we knew it the grandchildren added their colors into the tapestry. t times yo can see where the stitches are uneven but they do not end because the others stitched for the one who was hurting until they were strong enough to do it on their own.
Your thread has been slowing for a long time. The great granddaughters were born and your stitching became a little stronger. Not once did you stop stiching. Your abundant love for all of us, most especially Sabrina kept you stitching.
On Thursday March 27, 2014 when you went to meet Jesus all our stitches became perfect. Now all of our stitches are very wobbly. Please tell Jesus that he needs to pick up the ends of of our crosses. Our crosses have become too heavy to bear. We need his help to continue making the tapestry without you.
My heart is broken, it has a gaping hole in it where you resized. Thanks to you and Mom I know my Lord will never leave or forsake me.
Mrs. Nelsen Thank you for loving me for 45 years of my life.

Condolence: Grandma Nelsen was a woman of great warmth and kindness. I have so many happy memories of summer afternoons and holidays spent at her house. I will always remember searching Grandma's Christmas tree for the pickle ornament and playing with the dog figurine she had in on her living room floor. Though one of ten children, she made each of us feel special on our birthday. Grandma Nelsen opened her heart and home to my family and blessed us with her love. We love you and we miss you.

Condolence: Grandma Nelsen was an amazing woman of grace. Several memories stand out that demonstrate how wonderful and special she was to me. First was her annual Halloween Day party. She always had on hand the Halloween oreos plus fruit punch. Next was watching countless Army-Navy football games with her. She always brought a football shaped Carvel ice cream cake, which was a particularly appreciated in the mid-to-late 1990s when Navy consecutively lost several close games. She was the first person I called after attending my first Army-Navy game as a midshipman. She was such a strong supporter of my dream of attending USNA and I cherished her many letters while I was there.
The most lasting memory of grandma; however, will be her unfaltering Catholic faith. Through her witness she was undeniably one of my greatest role models. Particularly in her last years, when her health was failing, she had a great devotion to the Blessed Great John Paul II. Like the late Pope, she endured her suffering with such beautiful grace. Rather than lament her ailments, she embraced the suffering as a way to come into greater communion with our Lord. While deeply saddened by her death, I rejoice in knowing that her suffering is no more and that she is now, with her beloved husband and all the saints, enjoying the beauty of Heaven.

Condolence: Grandma Nelson was a light in my life. Not everyone is as lucky as me to have three grandmothers. I especially remember holidays with Grandma Nelson. She would always decorate her table and have treats to share with me and my brother and sisters. We loved her Italian food! I also remember her periodically taking us out to Olive Garden for a "fancy" meal. We felt so special. Now, as an adult, I am amazed by her strength, and abiding love in Jesus. We will miss you. I know you are happy in heaven. We love you forever.
