Jan & Joanne, I am so sorry to hear of Nina's passing. We had many good times at line dancing over the years! I'm glad I ran into her a while back and we had a chance to talk. She loved life & lived it to the fullest! And I remember how excited she was about her new grandbaby! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless.

We were in total shock to hear of Nina's death. Thank you for remembering us. We met the Domingues in 1969. Nina was a wonderful and unselfish person. She loved all of her family and gave so much of herself. A legacy to be passed on. I regret we did not see each other recently. She introduced us to our first Mexican foods. We played cards as couples and outings with our children. I know that she will be missed by family, friends and her community. Rest in peace my friend. You have reached the unknown eternity.
