Dear Groom Family, No words can express how dear Nova is to me. We met as co-workers at Rogers in 1980. Nova always had a smile and a cheerful word for everyone. She was a gentle, loving soul who was like an older sister and mentor to me. We had so much fun riding around in her various sports cars and going out for lunch. Together with other "Rogers" friends, we continued to gather and celebrate our friendship as long as we were able. I will treasure her memory always.
"When you remember me, it means that you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means that you summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us. It means that if we meet again you will know me. It means that even after I die, you can still my face and hear my voice and speak to me in my heart. For as long as you remember me, I am never entirely lost." -- Frederick Buechner, "Whistling in the Dark"##imported-begin##Shirley Lawton##imported-end##
My Dear Friend Nova,
Just want you to know how much I'm going to miss our many phone calls together. We had such fun times together planning our class reunions, but I know now that you are at peace and you don't have to suffer anymore. I want you to know you will always be in my thoughts.
With Love Always
Your friend,

Bill & Family,
Nova will always be in our hearts including all the wonderful memories we have of her. She was a wonderful friend and neighbor. We miss that special lovely smile and cheerful "hello".
Deepest sympathy to the family.##imported-begin##Rosemarie & Andy##imported-end##
Family and Friends:
My son and I will miss her each and every day. She was a tremendously positive influence in my life. It was the most difficult thing I have ever attempted, to hold her hand and watch her leave me. I love her more each day for her loving and positive attitude. My son and I will miss her, but keep her forever in our hearts. My hope is to be even a tiny bit as wonderful a mother as she was to me.
