Nelle had a long, successful career in banking and retired from Georgia Bank and Trust. She was respected by her coworkers and loved by her customers. Her true gift and one she used to serve the Lord was Bible study and teaching. She studied hours upon hours preparing her Sunday School lessons and she participated in hundreds of Bible Studies as documented by the countless notebooks she has filled.
