Nina (Daigle) Lulevitch, a devoted mother and grandmother, left this earthly life surrounded by her loving family on March 19, 2025 at the age of 91.
Born on December 30,1933 in Fort Kent Maine, she was one of seven children to the late Emile and Alexia Daigle. Nina was a strong woman whose greatest love was that of her family and her four children. She taught her children about unconditional love, gratitude, independence, resilience and compassion. Her dedication to her family was mirrored in her commitment to her work at Walbro Manufacturing, formerly in Meriden, CT where she labored diligently to provide for those she cherished. Her journey is a testament to the power of a mother’s love and sacrifice.
Nina loved to cook and work in the yard. She cherished moments spent with her family and time spent with her sister and best friend, Lenora Beck, who brought the gift of gab, love and laughter to every visit. Together they shared an undeniable and remarkable bond. Nina’s relentless efforts to keep in touch with her family were not merely gestures, they were her way of wrapping her loved ones in a comforting embrace, reminding them that they were always in her thoughts. She had an infectious sense of humor and a generous spirit that touched many lives. She had a remarkable ability to see and accept people for who they were, embodying a profound understanding and lack of judgment of others that inspired growth and healing in those around her. She believed in the power of forgiveness, learned to never hold a grudge and found peace in living with an open heart. With her radiant smile, quick wit and mischievous chuckle, Nina filled her years with laughter, and a collection of one-liners that could lighten the heaviest of moments.
Nina’s heart was also filled with her love of animals. She found great joy in the company of her beloved dog, Inga and her cats, Bella and Leah. She found an endless love for her two grand dogs, Koda and Kassi who also brought her countless moments of laughter and comfort.
Nina’s passing has left a void in the hearts of her family, friends and those who had the privilege of knowing her. Her selfless beautiful soul will be missed beyond measure and her legacy of love and acceptance will forever live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to experience her grace and kindness.
Nina is survived by her son, Eddie Lulevitch, of Ridley Park, PA, her daughters, Donna Dinardo, of CA, and Janice Lulevitch, of Bristol; her grandchildren, Nicole Falatko and her husband, Billy, Michael Cyr, Eddie, Makayla, Noelle, Luke, Logan, Anya, and Juda Lulevitch; her sister-in-law, Kathy Bier and her partner, Ed Wyatt; her nieces, Linda Beck and Sandra Beck-Brejza; her nephews, Shane Hartunian and Davin Garcia; her former husband and father to her children, Edward Lulevitch and his wife, Yolanda; and many extended family members and friends. She was predeceased by her daughter, Theresa Cyr, her brothers, Alva, Emilien, Richard and Alton Daigle, and her sisters, Millie Whitworth and Lenora Beck.
