I had the pleasure of taking Nancy and my grandma Betty Moser shopping a few years ago. To watch the two of them arm and arm walking through the mall telling stories and laughing was so sweet to see. I will always think of Nancy as so sweet and happy. May all of the happy memories you have stay in your hearts forever.

Nancy Lee and Ritchey, I have such fond memories of our childhood and your Mothers warm smile. She was always so kind to all of us children. Summers when we would all go water skiing, turtle watching, and building bon fires. How your Mom and my Mom would pack up picnic lunches enough to feed an entire army. When I went to the prom and your Mom and my Mom had so much fun dressing me up. Then when my late husband Teddy and I went to a formal dinner they were both very busy making us look great. I am so grateful my Mom had such a great friend your Mom. They would talk on the phone for hours. They loved shopping, going out to lunch and book exchanges. They have been good friends for many, many years. Your Mom was such a wonderful and kind person whom loved her family very much. I am so sorry for your loss know my heart is with you both. Love, Pam Senecal
