My deepest condolences to Nancy's 3 sons & family.
She was a very dear friend for many years, we palyed Tennis & Golf together. I visited her beloved Douglas, Mich w/her several summers in the 80's.
I loved her sense of humor & sharp witty mind.
Our chance meeting at Manor Grove in 2011 was another pleasurable gift to me (my sisters knew her too) as my Mother came to live there also. We got to visit often & she enjoyed hearing about my family(of 3 sons)& my recent travels.
Unfotunately, I was just returning home from FLorida on Monday, planning on visiting her but only heard of her passing yesterday.
I will have many fond memories of our enjoyable times together(with Jack too)through the years...
God Bless you all, Jan Mullenix
