Nadyne was a sweetheart. My memories of her take me back to the many years we attended the Owen Family Reunion in Gainesville. She always brought a smile on her face a very delicious homemade bread that she shared generously. She will be missed for sure. May you Rest In Peace sweet lady.

We discovered she was good friends with Mary Lou Young, Kathy’s daughter-in-law’s grandmother. It’s a small world.
so sorry for this great loss . Also sorry we could not be there with you. This is the last of J.A. and Eula’s babies to leave this world. They were very good friends of my grandparents, Jim and Mary Dooley from many years ago. Nadyne and I were teachers together at Ben Franklin years ago. Love and prayers. Phyllis Hurst Hutson Moore
