Nelwyn Meredith

NELWYN, HER HUSBAND DUDLEY, NOW DECEASED, AND I ATTENDED LAMAR COLLEGE TOGETHER. THE THREE OF US MAJORED IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND BECAME TEACHERS AND COACHES. DUDLEY AND I PLAYED FOOTBALL TOGETHER AND THE THREE OF US BECAME CLOSE FRIENDS. MOST FRUSTRATING TO ME WAS THE FACT THAT I COULD NEVER BEAT NELWYN IN BADMINTON. WE HUNTED , FISHED AND WORKED TOGETHER. DUDLEY AND I PLAYED THE GUITAR AND SANG UP EVERY SONG WE KNEW AND THE MADE UP SOME. I RECALL A SONG BY THE "OLD JIMMY ROGERS" THAT WAS TITLED "OLD FRIENDS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST". TRULY, NELWYN AND DUDLEY WERE THE BEST. LOVE THEM AND MISS THEM. RONNY WALKER

Dudley & family,

So sorry to hear of your loss. I will always have fond memories of Nelwyn. She was definitely a remarkable woman. Know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. May God grant you comfort and serenity during this time.
