Nedra loved to paint, create stain glass and was actively involved in the Midvale Arts Council for 30 years.  She was an original member of MAC and was honored in 2015 for her contributions. "I always have volunteered," she said. "It was how I was raised.  I went to school with the original members of the arts council.  We wanted to do something together, so we started the arts council."  Her paintings are now priceless treasures to her loved ones.
