Nellie was a Catholic by faith and attended St. Ursula's Roman Catholic Church in Pursglove, WV, and St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church in Star City, WV, while her health permitted. Nellie's greatest joy was spending time with her family, whom she cherished. In her earlier years, she loved to travel and experience new adventures with them. Nellie also was very fond of her dogs and loved having them as part of her family. She enjoyed watching movies and playing games, and spent many hours playing bingo and cards. Nellie knew no strangers and made many friends who, along with her family, will forever remember her beautiful smile and warm, infectious laugh.
