I have known Nancy all of my life. When I was little and she use to work up at Glen Campbell's store up in Pleasent View, she use to give me candy. She will definitely be missed for she was such a sweet lady, never knew a stranger and always talked to everyone. RIP Nancy!

Nancy was one of the dearest, sweetest women I have ever met. She certainly went out of her way to make everyone feel so special. She made a point to always ask about friends and family members...and how she loved to make over the children. Nancy touched so many people! I pray God brings the family peace and strength in the days to come. Hugs and Prayers.

Nancy was such a wonderful person with an amazingly sweet soul. She was so good to us and loved seeing our children. Her passing is a true loss for our community. I pray her family will find comfort in knowing the Lord has received one of his precious angels home.
