Bob and I were so sad to hear of Nancy's death. We thought the world of her and Jim. She got me involved with Flat Stanley one year. What fun! We have good memories of our years in Austin!

Charis and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I enjoyed getting to visit with Nancy at church on Sunday or Wednesday. There were several Sunday's when she'd sit in the row in front of me and I just loved talking to her. Even though she might have been in some pain she always had a beautiful smile on her face and words of encouragement. She was such a beautiful lady. I have missed her so much at church. May God bring you peace and comfort in the days and weeks to come.
