Nettie was born August 25, 1940, in Sioux Lookout, Ontario. When she was four, she moved with her family to Long Lake, Manitoba, until she was 16, when she moved to Winnipeg to work.

Nettie had many hobbies such as fishing, crocheting, bowling, baking, and fixing or building anything she put her mind to; she enjoyed the challenge and was truly an amazing person.
