Nina was born June 4, 1939 in Springville, Utah to Jay Parley and Elmina Mendenhall Madsen. She had two brothers, Lloyd and Gary, and a sister, Lynette, who all preceded her in death. She loved and missed them, but now they are reunited.

Nina was very involved in school and attended BYU. She was in plays, was a class officer, and had a great group of friends that she still got together with regularly. She was a very outgoing person who made friends easily. She always had a great laugh and cared about what was going on in others’ lives.
