Nancy was a wonderful person. I worked with her when the campus recycling committee was formed. She always had a smile and would always greet you anywhere she saw you. She was a great teacher caregiver. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. I worked with Nancy at the College of Nursing as a staff member years ago. We would occasionally see and greet each other as she walked hospital hallways. My condolences to the family.

Nancy taught me so much as a new faculty member when I started teaching at University. I will always hold her in high regards. I loved getting her Christmas cards and she always glowed talking about her family when we would pass in the hallways at University over the years. You are all in my thoughts..
