"Dear Nelson Family I am sure you are stunned and heartbroken. We all are. I suspect we are all holding on to each other a little tighter with the knowledge of how fragile life is. Tiffany's leaving reminds us that old age is not a gift to everyone. That we can have a long to do list but no guarantee we will have the chance to accomplish them. We will ask ourselves why this happened. but we will find no answers. There must be a reason. God has a plan and we accept that- -because we have to. With deepest sympathy Laurie"

"Dan, Renee and your families, my heart is breaking for you. You are in our prayers and consume my thought. You have been shorten time but will always have your abundant amount of memories. While that doesn't sound comforting now in time they will be treasures. Deepest Sympathies. Nick, Michele, Kade and Carter Wigern"

"Rick, Barb & Renee, Our love and prayers are with you always. The happy memories of visits, when the girls were young. Tiffany and the cats, rabbits and all the energy she had.

"Tiff, I don't know how we can finish the nursing program without your smile & witty sarcasm. I don't want to endure another clinical without you. You were a great nurse in training! All of your patients loved you because they knew you cared. When we started our last clinical we were asked to describe our best attribute and you said yours was caring. I agree & not many people possess that naturally. Miss you already. :( My thought & prayers are with your family, friends and Diego. "

"Tiffany your laugher and sense of sarcasm were distinctive to you; they always left me in stitches and brightened my day. I remember the last conversation we had Man!! You cracked me up I can still remember how you reacted to my questions; nevertheless you knew I could return back the favor owing to my "tan "complexion. I will miss the short times we spent together, mostly the break time visits @ work and nursing clinicals with your clean Nike Shox.................. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time. Tiff I will always remember you for your unique qualities; you were humane, humorous and a heroine. Kibby Ndemo "

I have many great memories out on the farm, and anytime we had hung out. I will never understand death, or why such good people are taken from this earth so soon. I will forever charish the memories and great times we had together. If there is anything I can do. Please ask. With all my love. Amber"

"Dear Rick Barb and family, there are no words at this time to make things better. Sure wish there were. God helps us handle what we are given, and he truly is at your side and will come to give you comfort, peace and strength. It can be very difficult to try to understand why things like this happen. Seems senseless when it does, but there is a reason - we just don not know what that is now. You will come to understand in time, when your journey here is complete and you are all reunited with all your loved ones. That thought always gives me comfort. Please take care of yourselves too. Try to stay healthy and strong for each other. Love, prayers, hugs, blessings, and peace to you all. Much love Phyllis Lindemann"
