I Remember Nellie

I first knew Nellie at Meier & Frank in the 1970s. I remember her respect for all employees, her camaraderie with her peers and her loyalty to those who worked for her in the Sales Audit Department.

Later I recall the potluck picnics under the ageless grape arbor at her home on Icy Rd. It was an annual reunion of M&F people where friendships were rekindled and stories told and retold of an often arduous retail business.

Most recently I cherish work parties with two of my friends at her place where we finished up yard projects she had started and did small maintenance projects that helped her live out her years in the home she loved.

But most of all I treasure how she loved us all, cared about us and our families and relationships and just wanted the best for us in our lives.

Thank You NJ, Thank You.
