Nelda Shive was born February 7, 1932 in Navasota, Texas to the late Minnie (Hemann) and Fritz Thane. Nelda married the late Wilson “Bo” Shive on August 25, 1950. He was the love of her life. They enjoyed the time they spent together and traveling, especially trips

She was a loyal member of Trinity Lutheran Church where Nelda served in women’s groups as well as a member of the VFW women’s auxiliary. Her greatest comfort and joy in

life was her family, all of them. She loved visits and spending time with her grandchildren and thirteen great grandchildren. She cherished her time with them all.

Taking care of her yard was something she loved and took pride in. As a dedicated mother and grandmother, Nelda was kind, loving and loyal. She could always be found around town or at church on Sundays looking her best. Our mom/ Granny will be forever missed, but we take great comfort knowing she is with Jesus and reunited with her loved ones.
