She was 90 years of age. Nina was born May 18, 1913, in Mt. Carmel, Utah, to Hyrum Wallace Stevens and Mabel Spencer Stevens; the middle child in a family of 11. She had six brothers and four sisters. Nina was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served valiantly in any assignment that she was given. She loved to teach the children in Primary and always had a special spot in her heart for them and an abiding concern for their welfare. There are still many who are grown with children and grandchildren of their own who still call her "Mom." Nina married Claude Black on April 15, 1932, in the LDS St. George Temple. Nina loved to garden and always had beautiful flowers around her home. She would often be found tending her garden even when she had difficulty getting around. Another of her interests was creating wonderful quilts on her old Singer treadle sewing machine, which she was still doing in her 90th year. She made quilts for all of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren as they came along. Nina loved the out-of-doors and spent many days with her family and friends camping at her favorite camping spot at the old sheep camp on the Lewis River. Many memories were made there that will stay in the family's lives forever. Nina is survived by three sons, Dennis of Buffalo Center, Iowa, Roger of Trout Lake, Wash., and Boyce of White Salmon; two daughters, Nora Kyte and Darlisa Black, both of White Salmon; a brother, Leo Stevens, of Utah; 17 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchildren, who brought much joy and happiness to her throughout her life. She was preceded in death by her husband, Claude, in 1996, and a son, Sheldon, in 1956. A funeral service will be held Nov. 12 at 11 a.m. at the Church of Christ of Latter-Day Saints in White Salmon, with interment following at the White Salmon Cemetery. A visitation was held Nov. 11 at Gardner Funeral Home.
