She was a longtime Communicant of Our Lady of Mercy Church, South Bound Brook, a former member of the Elizabeth Avenue Fire Company Ladies Auxiliary, several senior citizen organizations and spent many years as the secretary of the South Bound Brook Seniors.


Family was everything to Nettie you were always welcome in her home. Especially the shore house that she loved. Sunday dinner an occasion at the shore the friends and family would enjoy. Sunday morning coffee as well with Dorothy and Larry.


Christmas with the family sometimes as many as 50 people in the house. The Spring and Fall at the shore and winters in Florida with her sister Ann always held a special place in Nettie’s heart. She also loved to travel, especially with her neighbor Evelyn Barbati to bowling tournaments.
