Miss Nadia and I shared many of our mornings together for 4 of the past 5 years. God gave us that time together and I will cherish it forever. She was a true lady with a pure heart. I learned so much about life from her. She was my friend and I miss her. God bless all of her wonderful and caring family. She truly loved and adored every single one of you so very much.

I waw so saddened to hear of Aunt Nadja's passing. I was allowed to call her "Aunt" through my association with her nieces, Michele and Diane. She was the sweetest and loveliest woman I've ever known. She was surely an Angel on this earth and will be missed by all who knew her. Rest in peace, Lovely Lady.

Nadia was one of the most gracious and kind people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I was honored by being a guest in her home for dinner. It was delicious prepared by one who certainly knew her way around the kitchen. I am sorry that I will not be able to be present for her mass but I will pray for her in the days, weeks and months ahead. My condolences to her family.
