Nina Clare Jagodinski

Nina Clare Jagodinski, age 66 of Manitowoc, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday August 16th, 2023.

Nina was born on November 17th, 1956, in Manitowoc to the late Edward and Valentine “Tina” (Tadych) Jagodinski. Nina spent most of her life in Manitowoc and was a longtime resident at Rivers Bend Health and Rehabilitation Center, which she affectionately called "Ninaville".

Nina was one of a kind and kept everyone on their toes with her sass. She always had a kind and funny word to offer to everyone she met, if you were lucky. Nina loved spending time with her daughters enjoying a Bud Willman’s hamburger and chocolate malt every chance she got. She was always grateful for the many people who took care of her along her journey.  When Nina wasn’t spending time with her daughters and grandchildren, she enjoyed listening to and singing country music, playing bingo, doing crossword puzzles and collecting artwork from her granddaughters. Enjoying conversation and a good cup of coffee with her wonderful friends at Rivers Bend was her favorite. Nina always said Gods greatest gift to her were her 3 girls.

Nina is survived by her 3 daughters: Kristina (Chris) Koenig of Manitowoc, Stacy (Micah) Brittelle of Los Alamos, NM, and Jackie Terp (special friend Tony Brantmeier) of Manitowoc; four grandchildren: Gryffin and Phoenix Jonas of Manitowoc, Haiden and Ella Brittelle of Los Alamos, NM; one sister: Marcie Mikeal of Manitowoc; and a twin brother Steven Jagodinski, Manitowoc, along with many wonderful cousins and friends. Nina was preceded in death by her parents: Edward and Tina Jagodinski.

A private family celebration of life will be held for Nina at a later time.
