I just found out yesterday of Nancy's passing. We had lunch several a year ago and promised to do it again soon. She signed my KSHE book. I worked with Nancy at KSHE in 1979 until I went to the national side in 1984. All the stories are true and make for wonderful memories. She was one of a kind. I learned a lot from her.

I had the pleasure of doing Nancy's hair and met her at the last couple years of her life. We had many laughs and being like minded was amazed at this modern thinking woman so ahead of her time. I miss her every friday!

Nancy was an original, one of a kind. Unique. Met her as a competitor, but she became a good friend.

I met Nancy when she listed my home in Frontenac. It did not take very long until we became good friends. Nancy was strong and opinionated which both helped in her many achievements, but she was also compassionate and full of heart and energy. I will always consider her as my big sister and remember her beauty and exuberance. Love you Nancy!

Nancy had both great beauty and great intelligence. She was the first to break the glass ceiling for women in media management. We all have wonderful Nancy Pool stories. We love you, you will always be remembered.

I only met Nancy once, she was rehabbing a home next door to me in the 70's in Crestwood. I was working on my car with KSHE blasting. I thought "uh oh, the old could you please turn that down was on the way" but instead she came over and introduced herself and told me thanks for listening and if I ever needed anything she gave me a business card with her number on it. What a classy lady. She will be missed. I will never forget that.

Nancy was my first boss at KWK/KGLD. She was always gracious and direct. She once told me to quit eating like a football player. I have enjoyed 30 years in St.Louis media due to the break that Nancy gave me. I will always be grateful! Kurt Krueger

Nancy was my favorite customer at The Clayton Car Wash. I will miss her cheerful personality. I always told her she was my roll model and I wanted to be just like her when I got older. Even when she was so sick she would come in with such a positive attitude. She is going to be greatly missed.

I have know Nancy over many years, and she was always on the move doing "another project"...and her mother, bless her, and me were sometimes in competitive joke telling, and her time on KSHE was quite a hoot. My sympathies to her family, as you don't find such energy that intense late in life, but Nancy did. Bless her, as she blessed all the lives she touched.

My best to Marcy and other family.
