She was married to Woody Tunnell who passed away early in life. Later, she married Alex Woldert, III who after 31 years of marriage preceded her in death. Nina was one who never met a stranger and always had a smile and a story to share with her friends. She had a great zest for life and sense of humor that will be remembered by those who love and remember her. Her love of travel was evident as she spent most of her later years traveling for personal pleasure as well as for her church. She was also happiest while enjoying her creative talents. Nina was a passionate volunteer and spent many years as a Meals-On-Wheels volunteer. In addition, she enjoyed years of dedicated service to her church, Glenwood United Methodist Church, where she held many offices during her 50 plus years there. She was an active member of the Women?s Society of Christian Service which later became United Methodist Women up until her death. She was also a member of the Tyler Women's Forum and Women's Symphony League of Tyler. Her greatest joys in life were her three daughters, grandchildren and great-granddaughter. She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Linda and Steve Lindsey of Tyler, daughter, Lisa Chatterton of Richardson, and daughter and son-in-law, Laura and Martin McMullen of Tyler; grandchildren, Chris and Julie Lindsey, Collin Lindsey, Caroline Chatterton, Connor Chatterton, Claire Chatterton, Hayden McMullen; great-granddaughter, Emma Lindsey; and many beloved nieces, nephews, and friends.
