I just heard about Nance's passing.
When I started working at SmithBarney Nance was one of the first to make me feel comfortable. She was an extremely kind person who loved to talk about her kids. I remember how excited and proud she was when she spoke about her family. I will miss her great theater reviews which made me go buy a ticket to see "Jersey Boys" soon after she she told me it was a must see. My prayers to her husband and children. She was a great lady and I will always remember her great positive energy.

Gary, Marina and Dante I would like you to know how much I love Nance. We met on Bart on a day I did not think I would make it home, she saved my life that day, and many more times after that. No one made me laugh more than this special lady. My family can never repay her kindness, her love and her willingness to be there for us.
I will never forget the Auctions we worked, the Festivals we endured, the Ski Trip to Tahoe, the chicken cutlets...
We send our love and our thanks for sharing such a wonderful woman with us.

She touched my heart with her love and made me gleeful in times of sadness. She was the best buddy any person could ask for. I was not as faithful a friend to her as she was to me but none the less I loved her greatly for all her warmth, kindness, understanding, love, and humor she chose to share with me. My daily prayers will always include, Nance, Gary, Dante, and Marina for true love never ends.

I had the pleasure of her company while working at Smith Barney in 1992/1995. She had humor, wit and sarcasm all in one body. We had mutual friends, and she always shared her family with those of us who worked with her. I've been gone for many years, but the memory of Nance will always hold a dear spot for me. My deepest sympathies to Gary, Dante and Marina.

Gary, Dante, and Marina -
Although we have never met, I feel as though I know all of you. Nance and I would talk at length about our families while I was waiting for Tom. Somedays with nothing to trade, I would call with a new joke or a kid story. I will miss her tremendously. Our sincerest condolences. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers,

We meet many people in our life. Some barely scratch the surface, some leave a mark and some leave an imprint. Nance has left and imprint in my life and I will truly miss her. She was definately a good friend. I will miss her laugh, her stories (boy could she tell a great story!!! She taught me some very colorful words LOL), parenting advice (my kids thank her. Because of her my kids got A's on all of their school projects, she was soooo crafty)...oh can't forget the snacks. Nance ALWAYS had the best snacks :-) I love you Mrs. "A" your friend Mrs. "C"

Nance was an incredibly special woman. whenever i think about her, i am reminded the importance of having a strong loving family. Nance was the shining example of a loving mother and wife. Her main focus in life was her children, and i will always admire her for this. She was a hard working woman who gave of herself and always was ready to lend a helping hand. Her smile and zany greetings brightened many of my days. a wonderful woman like this one shall never be forgotten, and will be cherished and loved by anyone she touched in her life. we were co-workers for nearly 20 years, but more importantly, we were friends for that same time. I offer condolences and best wishes to Gary, Dante, and Marina. thank you for sharing with all of us the gift of knowing your sweet beautiful Nance. She is golden.

Nance was not just a sister-in-law to me. She was my SISTER. She was "very" close to our family and we all loved her. She was a wonderful wife to my brother, mother to my nephew and niece and aunt to all of her nieces and nephews. You could not ask for a better "friend." I will miss her tremendously.

Nance Affonso was my closest aunt and a wonderful mother.
I always loved her fun, sarcastic, new york, charm and her geniune opinion about life. She was always entertaining and made every family gathering a party. I will miss her unlimited thoughtfulness, compassion and love for all of us.

I have never loved a neighbor before meeting Nance. She was so generous, kind, willing to help, let me borrow an egg or two or watch my kids at any given moment. She was like family. I will truly miss her. I have another Angel in my corner now.
