Hello APACHE Classmates' and Alumni,



I received a phone call on Monday October 31, 2016 (Halloween) from our Classmate Natanya Nelson-Blakely with the sad news that her Mother Ms. Margaret Nelson passed away. Ms. Nelson had been sick awhile and was hospitalized months ago with colon cancer. She had a successful surgery on her intestines and was released from the hospital. For the last few months she was taking her medications and was recuperating at her home in Corona, CA.  Although she had been on the mend, she lost her colon cancer battle and went home to be with the Lord.




Ms. Nelson's "Viewing" is Monday, November 14th and her
"Funeral" and "Repast" are Tuesday, November 15th (in Northern, California).




Most of you may know or are familiar with Ms. Nelson's (3) three children, Her daughter 'our Classmate' Natanya Nelson-Blakely c/o '75, and her Sons from Willowbrook Jr. High School: Darrin Nelson c/o '76 and Kevin Nelson c/o '77. Both Darrin & Kevin did not attend Centennial (but) they excelled in High School sports. Both went on to have Professional Football (NFL) careers.



To My Dear Friend and Sis' Natanya,
Me and my family are very sorry and are very sad to hear of Mama Nelson's passing. We want to express our deepest sympathy and condolences to you, your Dad and your brothers. You are in our prayers and we will be here for you. We are just a phone call away. Your Mom was a wonderful Mother. She was like another Mom to be. She was a good and close friend of My Mom's. She will be deeply missed and may she R.I.P. Natanya please let her sweet and cherished memories sustain you.


Love and Blessings, Phoebe

PRAYER



Lord, we come lifting up the Nelson Family to you. Lord, please remember the Nelson Family right now in their hour of need as they mourn the loss and the transitioning of their Dear Mother. Lord, please help them in their grief with the hope that one day they will be reunited with their Dear Mother again. Lord, we ask that you would comfort them and give them strength as they prepare for her Viewing and her Funeral. Lord, we ask that their beautiful and loving moments that they shared with their Mother will sustain them. Lord, we pray for your strength and mercy and ask you to cover them and undergird them. Lord, we are just weeks away from Thanksgiving and Lord, we ask that you surround them with your love and surround them with family and friends to help them get through the hours, the days, the moments. the weeks, the months, and this time of sorrow. Lord, your word tells us that troubles, heartaches and pains may come. Lord, have mercy right now. Lord, please give the Nelson Family the courage to keep trusting in You (in spite of their loss), and Lord, help them to stand on your promise that You will never leave them or forsake them. Lord, help the Nelson Family rest on your promise in Matthew 28:20 "And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Lord in advance we give you all the honor, all the praise, and all the victory in Jesus (Jehovah's) name.

Amen
