Born in Newcastle Upon Tyne 16 April 1933. The only child to parents Ernest Wallace and May Wallace (nee Bibby).

Nena dedicated her life to caring for others. Whether it was her family, friends, or even strangers, she always extended a helping hand and a warm heart. Her compassion knew no bounds, and her kindness was a beacon of light in our lives.

Mother, Grandmother and Great Grandmother.
Children:- Blaise, Dayn & Lianne
Grandchildren:- Emma, Joanna, Heidi, Dayna, Ki & Taylor
Great Grandchildren:- Isaac, Liam & Eddy

For over 50 years Nena was devoted to her partner Dennis (Usher) who shared her love of the great outdoors. Walking, geology, camping, Dennis gave Nena the escape she needed from her full time job as a mother, grandmother, great grandmother and teacher.

Nena spent most of her teaching career at South Notts College. She loved her job, she loved her teaching colleagues and she loved the students.

She taught us that love is not just a feeling but an action, something we show through our deeds and our dedication to others.

You will be forever in our hearts!

Nena was a very special person and so many people will remember her for her generosity of spirit and kindness. The moving tributes at her farewell were so touching and Nena's compassion and acts of kindness bestowed were again touching and special. It was always a lovely experience meeting Nena and so good to have known her. My heartfelt condolences to the family - as the slideshow said - "unforgettable".
