Nina L. Prentice, 96, passed away at Updykes Willow Ridge Home in Hornell, Tuesday July 23, 2013.
She was the daughter of the late Ross Champlin, and Fern Lewis Champlin, born on September 26, 1916 in Alfred Station, New York. She graduated from Alfred Station School. In 1932 she married Bert Whiteman, and they had a son born in 1933. In 1939, she married Glenn Prentice and they had 4 more sons. In 1948 they moved to Miller Hill where she resided, until she moved to Updykes in April 2012. Each spring Nina looked forward to gardening and grew many vegetables and beautiful flowers. Another passion of hers was having large family dinners, which we all remember enjoying her fried chicken and coconut cake. She was a great mom to all of her children, and they always came first. Nina was a member of the Alfred Seventh Day Baptist Church for many years.
Besides her parents, Nina was predeceased by her husband Glenn in 2008 after 68 years of marriage. She was also predeceased by her son David in 1993, her brother Boyd Champlin in 1993, and her sister Beatrice Trowbridge in May of 2013.
