My deepest sympathy to the Whelan family. Nancy was the sweetest person. We went to high school together and had many laughs.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the entire Whelan family at this time with Nancy's passing. I was a fellow classmate of hers since I first met her in my Junior High classes straight on through to our High School graduation in 1977. She had a great personality and she sure made my classes at school a lot more enjoyable to attend.
