There are very few Christmas' that I can't remember Aunt Nancy being there. I remember going to Denny's late at night with her and grandma when I came to visit one time and her coming over to Grandma's to see us when we were in town. She always called me "her girl". We were all her girls. Although I know that the holidays won't be the same without her, I am glad she will be with Uncle Jack and Jackie. So, while I am hurting at the same time there is rejoicing, knowing that she has now fulfilled God's plan for her, and resides with him. I will miss you, Aunt Nancy.

She will always be "Aunt Nancy" to me. No matter how bad she was feeling, she could always share a joke and laugh a little. I can hear her now saying "sing a little song, dance a little dance". She really did love life, even though in the last year or so, she wasn't able to participate in life as much. I know she is singing and dancing with Uncle Jack and Jackie in heaven now!

Dear Family Members, I express my sympathy for all of you in the passing of your Grandmother Nancy. She and I lived together on Baxter Road for awhile until we both had to move. Nancy was such a good person and went out of her way to make everyone happy that she knew or met. I'm really going to miss her so much.

Dear Jennifer, Joey, Kelsey and family: I wish to convey our condolences on behalf of your faith family at Community United Methodist Church. When one hurts, we all hurt - for we are one in Christ Jesus. I pray that "the peace of God that passes all understanding guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:7.
