Remembering you always Nina, forever missed!❣️

Dearest Nina. You are still a beautiful Angel presence in my life. Once connected and loved always connected in love. Thank you in so many ways for the life you led here on earth. I see you as part of my guide team of angelic guides. ❤️❤️❤️

Still feel you and see you in so many ways. Truly sustainable in the love, the laughter, the listening and the FIRE. We were messy and ever changing tides but sustained and sustainable. Not that I need to ask, but rather thank you, for always being a Mama Earth wanting us all to connect to all.
Love sustained,
Katy (as only you could ever call me)

I misssssss you being here with us spiritual beings being so heavy humans.

Awwww, Nina!!!
It’s a world we could not have imagined before but you are still holding grace over us all. I miss you so much that I could not recall the number of years you have been gone from here. Your indelible mark of love has not aged or succumb to weather. I know you helped my Dad transition into the oneness. My two unconditional lovers from this place now holding all of us! I love the love you brought so many. I love you, thank you for being such and amazing Human being, and connection to source!
Love, your Katy

~Kathryn & Nina~
If I were a sailboat with main and jib
And power for moving on from below
With sails to catch spirit winds above
The sea would be my world to roam.

The cabin would be our secure home.
The place for you and me to share hearts
To plan our mysterious trip of life
To land we have never seen but will.

But now my little sea craft in this dream
Is tied to an again and slippery pier.
So my ride with the wind and sail I find
Has become, sadly, an impossible dream.

Where are you my companion, my crew?
who tells me where to turn, when to laugh?
I am not the captain, just your loving friend.
I drift without compass, sail, desire or plan.

There are places calling. Changes to be made.
I search my maps we studied in the past.
Where we have gone seeking treasures
That contain learning, hope, growing, living.

There in the maps and scrolls of the past
Where together, hand in hand, we planned
The trips deep into our souls you noted
in the margins your loving voice and smile.

A message takes form in my tortured mind
That you are really, really near. You are here.
I shiver, I weep, I have received a rescue
I hurt but I am so much alive with your love.

You touch me with every memory of joy we have.
Continue to lead me with all your wisdom.
                                  Love Dad

God only know how I miss you and Mom. I can only hope that you've found each other and continue your journey together. Hopefully I'll find you some time soon. I love you both, Dad

Thinking about you often my dear friend, love you and happy birthday in the Heavens <3

Happy Birthday my sweet friend. I miss you SO much! Billy & I love you and thank you every day for bringing us together.

I don't know if anyone from Nina's family is reading this. I just found out about Nina's passing today. Many years ago, Nina was my therapist. She listens to the horrors of all that happened to me when I was a child. She held a safe space for me to share - something no one else had every done before or has ever done since. Nina was the perfect empathetic listener that I needed her to be. And, she had a profound impact on my life. My condolences to her family - I just wanted to express how much she meant to me and how grateful I am that our paths crossed.

I miss you so much my beautiful friend. Thank you for everything you have given me, and continue to give. I hear you! Knowing you has been one of my greatest gifts!

5 yrs gone yet Never Forgotten❤️
You live within me forever my one & only Neenie. I hear & feel you often & remember, we are eternally ONE❤️❤️

You're always here. You're always important. You live on in us. I've taken your advice throughout my life...you made an impact in my life Nina...


Always thinking of you...

As spring because near I lay a flower for you. Your warm heart and big smile is remembered often.
Till we meet again, Love you Neen!
Bec

Nina Marie,
It's only your Dad that thinks of you daily. I often wonder if Mom, Don, you, and my parents are together. I want so badly to believe it is so! Thank you for bringing so much good to us and friends during your short stay in this world.
I love you, Dad

Merry Christmas Nina in the Heavens!
Give my parents hugs for me.
Love and miss you!!

Thinking about you today Nina. I just posted your picture on my facebook profile. I've been thinking about you a lot and how warm and comforting you always were. Always missed and never forgotten! <3

Nina! Thank you for reminding us that you are still with us in so many ways even when it hurt to not have you hear laughing out load with and hear you doing your funny "meorwww Meow meow". Love love love you. We all miss you sooooooo.

I look at this page a few times a year just to see you and your wonderful family tribute. Missed forever dear friend!!

On this day...a day after would have been your 49th Birthday, I left my home for work early dawn as the sun was rising in the background I was heading to SF, when a beautiful shining star fell from the sky! (Not kidding) now, that I see this...it most be a sign from you and even greater symbolism of what you represent!

You keep telling me it has just been days but for those of us heavily here it has been so so long without you here. I see you in so many ways that sometimes I flicker a moment where I think you are still here! Love you so. Thank you for reminding us that you hold us.

Nina,
I met your father Jim today, and you are still the apple of his eye. It is clear that the lives that you touched while you were in this earth will live on forever! There is no better legacy than the power of touching others!

Love you so. Thank you for holding us still and always taking our calls! Blessed

I had Nina on my holiday card list and was looking for her address, since a prior card had been returned, when I came across this tribute. I am so very sorry about her loss. I had no idea she had passed shortly after I met her. She seemed so very full of life at that time. As a Vanderbilt graduate myself, how sad that she would pass on a trip back from my alma mater. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your loss.

Remember you from a child with a strong spirit...you grew up to an even stronger woman! Still can't believe that you no longer are gracing us with your presence on earth. However, you are in spirit form in the heavens taking care of a lot of your loved ones on earth! Thank you, Angel.

Gone but never forgotten. Recognizing your Birthday.

Dear Nina Marie,

Happy birthday today! Keith, Nicole and I had lunch today to remember the joy you brought into our lives.

Your loss is one I have not yet fully accepted nor will I ever until we next meet on your side, I love you and think of you daily, Dad.

Happy birthday Neen. I still feel you with me. It doesn't compute that you're not here. Love you always.

Not a day goes by that you do not continue to touch!! Love love love love love your light. And miss your standing here laughing and loving us

Our friendship was brief, but you left an impression. Thinking of you on what would've been your Birthday. Keeping you in my fond memories. I'm sure you are busy being everyone's guardian angel. I felt you there in the MRI tube. Thank you. XO

Hi Nina, Thank you for your beautiful beaming smile, for your friendship and sisterhood. thank you for the rainbow beam of light cast on the wall in a dark room in the early morning while I was meditating and needed to know that you were there.
You are still an angel in my life and I am grateful that we crossed paths.
Forever loved and remembeted, you live on in the memories and the Light that you are in my heart,
Heather Ribbs

Doesn't seem like its been a year. I think of you each and every time I go to make a decision, its as if you are there in my head helping guide me down a better path, better than the one I might be inclined to travel down. I was taught that time heals all wounds but with your passing I learned that is not the case. I still cry, and I still wish I could hear you laugh just one more time when I would share one of my stories about what my cat did that day. You were the one that helped me, a self proclaimed rockaholic, see that the light at he end of the tunnel was not an oncoming train but it was a way up and out of the rabbit hole I found myself in. Complex PTSD sucks and everyday is a struggle but i know I will heal as a tribute to you...I will do it for me but you are my inspiration. Love you .Jerika.

Dear Nina,

As this one year marker has come around, it's still hard to believe that your are no longer on this same vibration with us. I still have so many questions for you. I feel at peace that I got to thank you for some gifts you gave me, but I didn't get to thank you for the other lessons I was still yet to learn. You helped me carve out a new future for myself, and I'm forever thankful. When I was inside the MRI tube last month from being diagnosed with breast cancer, I felt a hand touch my hand inside the tube. Not once, not twice, but three times. As I struggled to stay perfectly still, my mind went to you immediately. It calmed me and made me smile while face down in there. It's so ironic that we both met at a cancer benefit a year and one month before your passing; and just shy of 12 months before my own diagnosis. It's crazy how life happens. All I know is that you had a pure true heart, and I'm happy that you got to share that with a solid and loving life-partner. Our prayers are also with Jeff on this one year mark. My prayers are with your friends and loved ones who still find themselves adrift without your loving guidance that only you had. Your are deeply loved and miss by so many. XOXO

This is me calling you today like 1000 times before as if you have not transitioned to another place. I love you so and miss you love. Never good bye! "Just call me when it works best for you" as we would say. Love love love the love your brought and bring my life! Kisses

You are missed - I think of you frequently and still have trouble understanding how you could be here one minute and then gone the next.....

I can't believe the Lord would take someone like Nina away from all of us. She was such a pleasure to be around and she made everybody smile. One reason why I think about her and never will forget her is the fact that when we dated some years ago she turned me on to shower gloves that I use every time I'm in the shower. There are other reasons too, but every time I use my gloves I think of Nina. I miss you Nina! R.I.P.

Nina, I sit here with such a heavy and sad heart! You helped me in so many ways I cannot thank you enough! I called today to book an appt. its been about 6 months! I'm in Shock! I will miss you and your kindness and understanding but most of all your wonderful soul!! Thank you for your friendship and healing you gave to me!
I will always think of you!

For those of you in the SF bay area- there is a nonprofit organization called KARA that offers grief support, drop in groups, etc. They are based in Palo Alto. 650.321.5272 or www.kara-grief.org. I've heard great things about them;)

Dear Nina Marie,

The pain of your loss continues and yet I believe you are with Mom and continuing to share the last 19 years of your life with her. I also know she now has the opportunity to tell you how proud she’s been of you with your accomplishments in your short life while here on earth. I’m going to celebrate what would have been your 46th birthday today very quietly with you in my own way this evening,

I love you and Mom , Dad

Happy Birthday

Baby, what an incredible gift you shared with me for 15 years. Today is YOUR day...my heart aches for your touch, to hear your loving voice and to see your radiant smile. I miss you sooo much. My life will forever be changed because of you and all the joy you brought into my world. Happy Birthday Baby, I love you more than words can possibly express.

Happy Birthday, Nina Marie. You are so loved and so missed.

My darling friend, Nina Marie I celebrate your birthday by remembering all the birthdays that you celebrated at the Zalewski house. You were there for Jill's, Andy's and Brian's. We had a great time with you from the third grade on. You were a happy, dancing sprite who had a bright light wherever you were. We spent many fun Halloweens with you and your beloved Mother. May angels surround you and your Mom and know what an impact you made on so many lives. I love you and keep you in my heart!

Nina...you were the only one...what happened. I dont have the words to express how much pain I am in...you were my therapist and a friend...you were the only one that did more than listen...you heard me and you helped me begin to heal. Losing you is something I don't know how to handle ....maybe one day I will hear you tell me what took you so soon but please know this. I remember everything you ever taught me and once I stop crying I will try very hard to breathe. I love u Nina....you were my therapist and friend, I miss you.

This is the full message from Nina that I read in part at her Celebration:

Nina Oct 23, 2014

I am here as we are here, always and forever one. We are the light, we are the oneness, we are God. We are all one. The dark and the light are simply one. Darkness is an illusion. Only light exists in its truest form. All else is illusion. As you saw dear Susan when the one you thought was me with the dull sad eyes crumbled away. As Archangel Michael said it is only a reflection, a projection of everyone’s grief and pain at what they see as the loss of me. Yet I am here, in my full glory and highest light, ready and willing to bestow blessings on those who ask and those who don’t. See me as I truly am. Some of you already do. I am the Beauty of God, the Light you seek. We are one.
There is no need to look outside yourself for the Light or to follow anyone else. Look inside at your bright light, connect it to the Light above and Mother Earth’s heart below. We will guide and protect you. The earth as you know it will be no more and all will become what it has always been, Light and love. Past present and future are one.
Treat your tears as sacred, as they cleanse and heal you, and in so doing bring healing and support to others in sacred waters. Treat your bodies as the sacred vessels they are, for it is through you that we are able to communicate and care for you and many others. See the light in one another, and know you are one. Be kind, and bring light into thoughts that are not kind. It will illuminate the truth- that you are all Light beings and always have been and always will be.
Call upon me with whatever name you wish, as I will know, we will know, you are calling upon us in the Light.
Some of you call me an angel, I am that and so much more. God is so much bigger than your brains can conceive. There is much knowledge, joy and much for me to do in order to support you, my loved ones I leave behind. I am always with you. When I walked the earth I thought it might be boring to be in the light all the time. It is not, I assure you. I am learning and growing even now, and am with each and every one of you, showing you I am here. Some of you see my signs, some do not. Know that when you wonder if it is a sign from me, it is. If some of you feel guilty on my behalf or wish to apologize, let it go. There is no need. I have no judgment and only see you through the eyes of the greatest love in existence. I said before, No I’m sorrys and no regrets. It is what it is. All is in divine order. Many of you feel it was too soon, yet I was called Home. Again, know that all is in divine and perfect order. My love, indeed our love for each of you surpasses your understanding. Know that I serve you, along with all the guides, ascended masters, angels and the oneness many call God. God has no need of worship, we worship all of you who walk the earth at this tumultuous and difficult time. You have many worries and fears. We say Fear Not, as we walk beside you and create a New Earth, one that is pure light and love, and cares for everyone and every creature, plant, mineral, rock in all of earth’s kingdoms.
Know that I am Love, and that you are love, and you are deeply and irrevocably loved. And so it is, dear ones.

Neen, you will always stay close to my heart. You have touched me and many close to me, we have so many memories we have shared. They will never be forgotten. Your time here was a blessing to all, you achieved so many things you are truly an inspiration.....see you on the other side dear friend <3 xoxoxoxoxo, Bec

Love is the most powerful source in the universe, even more powerful than death. Our love for you, and yours for us, will always be present in our lives, and held close in our hearts.

The loss of a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, and a friend is profound! I first met Nina Marie through some neighbors in St. Mary's Gardens (a close-knit group) when she was just a child. Even as a child, Nina Marie had a vivacious personality! You dare not call her simply Nina...her name was "Nina Marie!" Although, I did not see her after her late 20's - early 30's. I knew that she became a wonderful young woman! I know that her bright light is shining in heaven and she is at peace with her beloved Mom. Respectfully, "Becky"
P.S. I had first hand experience of the haircut by Jenna 
Also, Marit & Tracey from the "old neighborhood" offer their heartfelt condolences to the Larkin Family!

So many happy memories of watching you grow up when I came over to spend time with Keith. You made a huge difference in my life, and in that of others whose lives you touched. I will always love you, Nina and you will be missed.

My heart is breaking.  From that first day of 3rd grade when Nina became my forever friend, I have been so blessed. I have so many stories of how her friendship impacted my life, but for now, I just pray for peace for Jeff, Amanda, Jim, Keith, Nicole, Sean, Nicholas and Juliet. I pray for moments when we can all feel her beautiful light in our lives and in the lives of those we love. Every time I picture Nina, I see her in her mother’s arms. For that I am grateful. She shares her mother’s beautiful spirit of compassion, light and love. My beautiful friend, you will forever be a part of me. I love you, Nina.

Nina - I was so devastated to hear of your passing. I can't remember (literally) a time in my life when you weren't part of my world. I remember when we were five and you were "little Nina". i remember the bicentennial at your house. i remember dance classes and your pool and cutting your hair (sorry about that). I was so happy to be back in touch and I feel an incredible sadness knowing you're no longer in this world. You grew up into an incredible vibrant, talented and kind person. I'm so sorry the world is without your incredible light.
