Hi, I knew Nancy Caroline Ritter White when I was a little girl. She took care of me and my sister when my mother worked as a nurse. I really loved her. She was a very nice lady.

My sister and I have been doing genealogy on her and her sister Jennie Rosalie Ritter Taylor. Attached is Jennie Rosalie Ritter Taylor's obituary which includes information on Caroline. I have a photo of Caroline and myself when I was 3 years old. I will email it to you when I find it.

Sincerely, Jeanne Riecke
