Mrs. Kitson accepted the Lord very early in her life and has been a faithful member of Gospel Assemby Church in Moline for many years. She served as an usherette, nursery director, taught Sunday School and Bible School, and sang in the church choir until she was well into her seventies. She was lovingly known as Nana not only by her grandchildren but by other children as well. She often had children in her home and enjoyed playing a good game of checkers. Mrs. Kitson's greatest joy was to cook a big meal and invite all of her family to sit around her dining room table together to visit, be with one another, and pray together. No one ever turned down an invite to one of Nana's Southern home-cooked meals. Her love of family, her kind words of encouragement, and her faithful, fervent prayers will be greatly missed.
