Jack, Jeff and Susie, We were out of town and I just found out about this. My sincere condolences. Nancy was one of the kindest and most compassionate people I have known. When she worked for Dr. Kozloff, my husband was diagnosed with cancer. Whenever we were in the office, Nancy greeted us with a smile and a warm "how you doing". Her big heart and warmth made it so much easier to go to that office. She was an amazing person, and I know she touched the lives of so many people with her outgoing kindness. Thinking of you all.

Dear Jack:
Jane and I would like to extend our condolences to you and your family. I guess the last time I saw Nancy was when she came out to Cracker Barrel with your daughter Sue Buss; but I will always remember her as a lively, spirited, & kind individual from our high school years. Our thoughts are with you at this time of your loss.
Your friend & classmate,
