They moved to St Louis, and then to Tulsa, before settling in Scottsdale. Nita worked for 28 years at Good Samaritan Hospital as a Medical Transcriptionist and Supervisor. For many years she and George were very active at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral and developed many close friendships. Everyone she met was charmed by her warm smile and loving disposition. Nita would light-up at the mention of playing BINGO which was her favorite pastime. Together, “Babe” and George also enjoyed visiting many of the Casinos. Their devotion to each other lasted for 66 wonderful years. Beautiful memories!

I’m just finding this out. I’m so incredibly saddened by this news. What an amazing and kind lady. I have so many fond memories of Nita. R.I.P. my friend. I love and miss seeing you. I’m sure you and George are playing Bingo and having delicious pastries in heaven. Jen and Alex Boyle

Nita has had such a positive impact on my life and to call her “boss” always seemed silly because she was so kind and warm, and we were all happy to step up with the high quality and production she expected of us. What a sad day when we were outsourced. I happened upon the sad news of her passing and I’m sure I must’ve felt the Earth shift a bit that day, but I smile thinking of her with George and Whitney❤️
