UPDATE: Luella passed away at 12:03 PM Today, December 30, 2022. Obituary
If you've attended the Der Dutchman Cruise-In in Plain City, Ohio, you may have noticed the lovely lady sitting in a chair as you enter the cruise-in. This is Luella Nisly, wife of Wayne Nisly who manages the weekly cruise-in at the restaurant. Luella counts the cars attending the cruise-in each week.
I just learned that Luella is home following a 12-day stay in the hospital. She had two surgeries, one being a Whipple procedure. Unfortunately, her tumor was found to be malignant. Luella will undergo further treatment once she fully recovers from the surgeries.
Would everyone please say a prayer for Luella and Wayne during this challenging time? Both are an integral part of the Central Ohio car community.
If you would like to send get well wishes, their email address is wayne@wnisly.com
We will be praying for a full recovery. You are in our prayers. Dave & sharyl benson
Our thoughts and prayers are with Luella and Wayne!
Love, Annette and Pete Lieb
Hi Annette,
It not looking very good. The last report I received is that she is unresponsive and has been put on a respirator.
I'm so sorry to hear this news.
It’s so very sad. My wife and I had a nice conversation with her and Wayne at the banquet in October. She seemed perfectly healthy. Just goes to show, enjoy life while you can.
Bless her sweet and dear heart! Luella was surely greeted by a welcoming crowd in Heaven!
For sure! I will always remember her sitting in that chair as you enter the cruise-in.
