to the entire Blok family : I have just returned home from a vacation and checked the Haskett site and was sorry to see that your mother passed away. she certainly lived to a ripe old age but I know it was difficult for you to see her deteriorate. My condolences to you all.
Jarle Fisher & Carla Elliott
Jarle and I have very fond memories of coffee with Nellie and Tony at the farm….especially those pies! To Jarle all other pies in the world are just not as good as Nellies including mine and I have to agree.
Not having lived on a farm it was a special experience for us to watch her while she worked her magic and spend time with Tony in the barn.
She was always so interested in everything we were doing and supported Jarle in his carpentry and myself in my art.
We will miss her.
Our thoughts are with all those that loved her.
