*Dear Marta and the entire family of Ms. Nita Wiggins.
My condolences to you for the passing of your dear mother Ms. Nita Wiggins. I became to know her from far through her wonderful daughter Marta. She was always so kind and gracious toward me. Strong lady with lots of talents and good advises. Although, I never met her but I always admired her. May the memories of this Beautiful and kind lady help you and the family to get through these difficult times.
Regards.
