I first met Nancy at the t-ball field @1979 when Lara and my son Banon played on a team. We had a good time sitting in the bleachers during practice. She was a great supporter of her children. My condolences to the whole family, I know that she will be greatly missed.

Russell, We were so saddened when we heard this afternoon of Nancy's passing. I know this time has been difficult for you and know not how I would react in a similar situation. Although my contacts with Nancy were not many, it was obvious that she was a warm and friendly person. I know how much you must miss her. If there is anything that Mary Lou and I can do to help, don't hesitate to ask. Our prayers are with you.

Russell, What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
