Nina enjoyed traveling and spending time at the beach and in the mountains. She was quite artistic and enjoyed baking, gardening, sewing, crocheting, painting/drawing, and painting ceramics. Additionally, she enjoyed playing basketball as a youngster and participating in bowling leagues for numerous years in adulthood. She was an active member of the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer for many, many years before joining Charlestowne Methodist Church. Her Christian faith was very sacred to her.

Nina is survived by 5 children. They are Charles Leavitt (wife Lola), Carol Jordon Rudd (husband Ron), Karen Leavitt, Bobby Jordon, Jr. (wife Brenda), and Sallie Jordon Shelters (husband Shawn). She was grandmother to many, including great great grandchildren.
