life story

A Loving Mother, Daughter, Sister and beautiful soul

Survived by her two daughters Sedona(16) & Sophia(10), mother Caroline, brother Jeffrey, husband Max Nelson. Preceded in Death by her father James.

Her Journey with us..

She was born in Seattle WA and lived most her life in Coon Rapids, MN. Growing up she modeled for a few years, loved to water ski, go camping, road trips and hanging out with friends and her beloved Cats (Rascal , Mister T, the late Piglet and Garnett).

She was Diagnosed with Cancer 3 years ago, undergoing treatment was a tremendous toll that she fought through in hopes to recover and continue her journey. Her Cancer was not responding to treatment as well as we hoped, her Body was too weak to continue and was placed on Hospice for 2 Months until she passed away.

She never wanted to put the burden of her illness on any of us, and as we respected her privacy it comes to be a shock for many of her dear friends/family that her time with us is over. She had alot of dreams for the future, skills that she was exploring with her paintings and crafts. She wished to see both her Daughter's graduation, wanted to travel places and was not ready to leave however God has other plans for her now.

She was a wonderful friend to many, someone to laugh with, a shoulder to cry on if you needed, and would always greet you with her beautiful smile and bright blue eyes. We will miss her dearly an hold her in our hearts closely forever!!
