I am so saddened to hear of Nola’s passing. I took care of her at Touchmark and on behalf of the NOC staff we send our condolences and love for our dear Nola. We all miss her funny witty humor! She is deeply missed and won’t be forgotten!
Linda Nelson says
I knew Nola as a friend here at Touchmark. I so enjoyed her wit, her honesty, and her spirit. She was such a joy when she attended the Bible studies here. She fought the good fight, and I shall miss her.
Stephanie Steinberger says
I knew Nola through the Helena Mineral Society to which we both belonged. She enjoyed the many field trips the club went on and was always working on a quilt. Her gentle humor will be missed

Sandra, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother !!! I won’t tell you how many years ago, she taught me how to quilt. I had lost track of her after your father passed away. I know you will see her again someday in heaven !!! She had such a great way with words. She was as honest as the days are long. We had many cups of coffee and talked about the Lord together. I know you will miss her but she is very happy I’m sure. Can you imagine when she explains to God that I know how to quilt so I could help with that. HA HA!!!
