Daughter of Daniel Jackson Smith and Nannie Belle Hopkins, wife of Earlie Via Nelson.

The day of Mama's death, Saturday, it started snowing and sleeting. It lasted from Saturday until Monday morning, the day of her funeral. As she was brought out the door of the church following her funeral, the sun started shining for the first time since Saturday and even though it was cold, it was a beautiful day when she was laid to rest.

Mother of:

Peggy Maureen Nelson Reid Rowe
Betty Christine Nelson Vanhoy
Barbara Louise Nelson Cheek
William Jackson Nelson
Obera June Nelson Koehn
