She practiced in New York City, Washington State, British Columbia, Canada, Connecticut and Rhode Island.
Dr. Crook-Boulet (Dr. Nancy to her clients) owned and operated the Atlantic Animal Hospital in Charlestown since 2000. As a Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist, she introduced many of her clients to the benefits of this alternative medical treatment for animals and was well-known for her compassion for her clients and their pets.

For several years she led the Snug Harbor Gardening Society in the annual Fourth of July Parade, collecting canned goods for the Jonnycake Center. She enjoyed yoga, aerobics, surfing, kayaking, sailing, traveling, two book clubs, and ECHO, the Everyone Can Help Others dinner group.

I hope you´re jamming in heaven. I´ll jam down here and turn the music up loud loud loud for you. Love you lady. I miss you with ALL my heart and soul.

Hi Nancy, it's me again!! Another year we are into and I still have you in my thoughts and prayers! Just wanted to say I miss you terribly and someday, perhaps, I will once again see you! I know you're resting in peace now and I have lit this candle just for you.
November 5, 2011
I miss you. I miss your friendship and advice. You were always so level headed and looked at a problem from both sides and now when I need someone to talk to your not here. I wish that you would show up in my dreams and that I could wake up and remember what you said. You just seem so far away. I hope someday that I get to be with you again. I love you and I miss you. When I see a yellow bug, I say hello to you....but they make me sad. I hate the holidays, they make me sad too. They're not the same with out you and I don't even care to celebrate anymore. Maybe someday I'll get lucky and find out that you were really here with me all along in spirit and the jokes on me for missing you so much and being sad. But when you left, a light turned out in this world, and it's never going to be the same again. Love you. Miss you. Please come talk to me in my dreams.
August 31, 2011
Hi Nancy - Another year and BD time again. I still miss you greatly and think about you often. Thank you for your expertise advice which I carry with me day to day. You are with me in spirit and always fond memories. You will always be a part of my life in thought and in prayers. Thank You

Holidays are very painful without you. I wish that there were no holidays. It's just another reminder that you are gone.

It doesn't get easier with the passing days...if anything, it gets harder. You are very much missed; I wish you knew that. There is so much you're missing here, and so much we're missing without you.

Thanks to your brilliant observation of my "Ana" she now has a truly beautiful mouth!! When I brought her to you noticing a problem you pinpointed right on the mark as you always did!!
You have been there so much for so many. I've visited the clinic a few times now with "Ana" and I still feel your presence. Your staff is both personable and professional as you were.

Reading this makes my heart break even more. To the person who wrote this… I want you to know that you are not alone. Every day I miss my sister. Every day I mourn her. Every day I want her back. The pain is so immense that there are times that I just can’t touch it. I have to keep myself so busy that there isn’t any “free time”, no “alone” time; because these are the times that I wallow in sorrow. There are some things that you can do to help though and I wanted to share with you to help you. I see a therapist, someone I can trust who will listen to me when I talk about that pain, someone who doesn’t judge me and someone who told me that the grieving process is an individual process. There is no set time limit on your grief, and however you are experiencing it, well, that is what is right for you. So, please, please I am begging you, please seek therapy. If your grief takes you so far that you no longer feel like living, it is time to see a psychiatrist. Grief can turn into depression and depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain that can be treated with antidepressants. I’m not advocating for drugs, I just want you to be aware of your pain; I want you to know that you are not alone and that there are some people who can help you through this. I am one. Please send me an e-mail and I will be there for you. Take care and God bless, Love, April Crook

Happy Belated Birthday Nancy - I miss you dearly. It's just not the same without you. Just wanted to say, I nominated you for hero of the year (contest) through animal planet, at the time didn't know your birthday and had to fill in, so I put mine!

Dr. Boulet, It's been a month now and it is still very difficult to accept the fact that you are no longer with us.No one will ever be able to "fill your space or take your place" either as a vet, which was the best i had ever been to,or a human being, which to me was the kindest and patient to both animal and owner i have ever come across.there is a huge void in the universe now which will be almost impossible to get used to . you will be missed greatly and loved MUCH. stanley ,blossom, ginger, quonnie,emily jean, and the late ollie, mama, and muffin. we all thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you gave and did for us.

It is with gratitude we remember Dr. Nancy. She would come to our home annually to provide the appropriate vaccines and check ups for Lillian Rose, Isabelle, Oliver, Sophie, Penelope, Tony and George. Dr. Nancy had grace, and the animals knew it too.
Our prayers are with you.

Dear Nancy,
You were a truly beautiful person with a pure heart and so much compassion for other people and animals as well. Thank you for all the wonderful care you gave to so many pets, especially to my dog Cookie in her final illness. I remember painting class and your gentle paintings of sunflowers. You will be missed more than you could know, but I hope you are at peace. Love, Cherie

I am just learning of Dr.Crook's passing today. I am so saddened to hear about this. I had the pleasure of working with her a few years back at NK Animal Hospital. She was truely a caring and compassionate veterinarian. I always admired and respected her in so many ways. She is the true defination of a successful woman. I remember the day she told all of us she was opening her new practice in South County and would be leaving our hospital. I didnt know whether to be happy for her or cry that we couldnt "keep" her with us. She is the type of person you will never forget. Truely a beautiful person inside and out. She taught me many things that I know today. She was always so patient and professional. She was a great teacher. She even helped me put my first dog to sleep. She was so gentle and perfect. She talked about her husband and children and always had this "glow" of love and pride when mentioning them. I extend my condolenses to them. She will be greatly missed! I always think of Nancy when "Match Box 20" comes on the radio, she hated the song "Push". Every time it would come on she would say how much she disliked that song. It was so funny because she was the sweetest person I knew, I couldnt believe how much she hated that song. Its was funny. A great person .. a life that should be celebrated! We are all very lucky to have known her.

To the family, friends and staff of Dr. Nancy:
My thoughts are with all of you. I am very saddened by the loss of such an incredible person and veterinarian.
I've known Dr. Nancy the past 8 years. She cared for my cat, Moon, during those 8 years saving his life not once , but twice.
I am forever indebted to her. I will never forget her and she will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
She will be very missed by everyone who was lucky enough to know her.

It is with deep sorrow that I must accept my sister’s passing on July 15, 2008. She was 47 years old.
She leaves behind two beautiful, intelligent, young adult children, Elyssa, age 19 and Richard, age 17. Her husband Ron is struggling to maintain and run The Atlantic Animal Hospital, their business since 2000, in Charlestown, RI. It is a difficult feat, as Nancy was the Doctor for the clinic.
Nancy was a force for good in this world. She participated in missionary trips to Honduras with St. Andrews Lutheran Church, to help build a place of worship there. She donated sewing machines and taught the Honduran women how to sew so they could support their families. She helped to found the Honduras Education Fund. After hurricane Katrina, Nancy traveled to Louisiana numerous times to tend to the stranded animals and re-united owners with their beloved pets.
While some people marched in the annual Snug Harbor Fourth of July Parade to have fun, Nancy saw it as an opportunity to have fun and help others. She organized her family and friends into the little brigade of the “Snug Harbor Gardening Society”. As we marched, dressed up like silly old ladies in flowers and gowns, we pushed six grocery carts, collecting canned goods all donated to the food bank, the Johnny Cake Center in Wakefield, RI.
There is no way to make sense of my sister’s death. To me it is just patently unfair. A sister is a forever friend and one who makes up the very core of your being. There is a huge hole in my core right now. To me Nancy was my older sister, my friend, someone to look up to and admire. She was and will continue to be an inspiration to me. To others she was daughter, sister, friend, wife, mother, boss, co-worker, doctor, missionary, co-spirit. I am not the only one suffering. There were so many people who came to her memorial service. Many, many people are mourning, I don’t think even she knew how many people’s lives she has touched in positive ways.
Our family takes great comfort in the many people who attended her memorial service; for the friends who said kind, comforting words, for the people who sent flowers and for the people who have sent cards and donations to the Honduras Education Fund.
We take comfort in believing that she is in a better place, basking in the love of God. And we are hoping that someday that we will see her again…although we, I want it to be a long time from now. The hardest part will be that time. That time from now until we see her again, which must be lived with the juxtaposition of a desire to live life to the fullest, to Not waste one minute of it, to enjoy those minutes while at the same time mourning her loss. That must be the cruel irony of life and the challenge that we face.
In one way I know that I can honor my sister’s memory. I can live my life the way that she lived hers, as a Force for Good. I will “play the hand” that God has given me and I will “pay it forward” EVERY CHANCE I GET. I will honor her by doing good for others and by expecting nothing in return. “Only a life lived for others is a life worth living”, Nancy once told me. Rest in Peace Nancy Lynn. I love you with all my heart and soul.

I received the letter today telling me of the passing of Dr. Nancy. I never knew Dr. Nancy. I was suppose to take my dear Annabelle to her just before she died. I called and cancelled the appointment. I am sorry that I did not get to meet this great and wonderful lady. I felt as if I had known her all of my life.
I know I will get to meet her someday in heaven along with all of my fur babies. I am sure my fur babies along with all of the other babies were there to greet her.
God bless her family and God bless her. She is now among the angels.

Shock and sadness don't even begin to encompass what everyone who knew Dr. Crook are feeling at this time. Nancy was the caring and consummate professional -- dedicated, resourceful, knowledgeable and always in a consultative and compassionate manner, lovingly serving her clients each day.
I know her family is grieving and there is nothing anyone can say to truly easy your pain. I do hope it helps some small way to know we are all sending supportive thoughts and praying for all of you. In your pain and anguish, continue to remind yourselves that God does not give us more than we can handle. Nancy was sent as a special gift for all of us to value for a time and it is time that will begin make things more bearable until you are reunited with her one day.

We were so sad to receive the letter today notifiying us of Dr. Nancy's passing. She was a wonderful, caring person and an excellent doctor. She was so good to our cat Autumn and for that we will always be grateful. Due to Dr. Nancy's quick diagnosis when Autumn was sick, I continue to have my best friend and furry companion by my side whenever I lay down for my afternoon naps. Now those naps will be extra time for reflection on the goodness that Dr. Nancy brought to this earth! Thank You Dr. Nancy, and we miss you!

I WAS ABSOLUTELY STUNNED AND SADDENED TO RECEIVE A NOTE IN THE MAIL TODAY WITH REGARD TO DR. NANCY'S PASSING. OUR DOG LUNA STARTED GOING TO HER A YEAR AGO. SHE DIAGNOSED LUNA'S PROBLEM WHICH RESULTED IN IMMEDIATE POSITIVE RESULTS. SHE WAS PATIENT AND VERY ENCOURAGING IN HER TREATMENT OF LUNA. SHE WILL BE MISSED.MAY GOD BLESS HER FAMILY AS THEY GRIEVE THIS TERRIBLE LOSS.

Always compassionate, never in a hurry, it was obvious she loved her job. The care she gave could come from nowhere else but her soul. I will never forget the first time I had to put a dog to sleep, I was so glad it was done by Dr. Nancy. I'll never forget her saying "this is never an easy thing to do". You are a beautiful person, and will be missed deeply.

To all who celebrated Nancy's incredible goodness by attending her service, my family thanks you and is comforted by your kindness.
If we all carry on her legacy of care and respect for all of God's creatures, whether by volunteering or simply through kind words well placed, the world will continue to be blessed because she once graced it.
My heart is broken, big sister. When we meet again in heaven, you will still be young and I will be old and gray. But your clothes will be out of style. I love you with all my heart.

I'm truly shocked and saddened as I just heard of Dr. Nancy's passing. Such a wonderful care taker of animals, such a beautiful person. My family followed Dr. Nancy from North Kingstown to Charlestown and for good reason. Who else would come back to Exeter to make house calls for our 22 year old orange tabby cat, Spunky?? Dr. Nancy did and we loved her for it. Such a loss for all who knew her, furry and not, alike. Our condolences to her family and patients. May God bless you all.

You were all a part of the wonderful 5 years we spent in Charlestown. Friends, care-givers- we are devastated over the loss of Nancy. We often thought of you all and always will, although our thoughts will now be tinged with great sadness. We shall still remember, fondly, the happy times and the love and compassion "Dr. Nancy" gave to all be they human or animal.

I will miss Dr Nancy dearly. She was so kind when I took my childhood cats to her office. (I still call them kittens) She often said she would donate food to the poor if I would bring in a can of food. She would then reduce my bill. Who does that? When I had to go on a trip far from Charlestown and my girls needed special fluids; she said she would watch my cats. Who does that? My friends passed by the office during my absence; they saw the girls in the window of the office looking happy as clams. Who does that? Dr. Nancy did that and much more. We will miss her, the kindness, the knowledge, the connection she offered. My sincere condolences to her family, she was a gem. I will always donate in her memory, food for the needy. Karen

To Dr. Nancy's Family, We cannot express how much we enjoyed visiting Nancy at AAH. She was the most caring and passionate woman we've know. We shared many laughs, and she was a great comfort in our many years of struggles with our cat Sapphire, or her Antique, as she called him. She always made us feel special, and we now realize she made everyone feel special. We count outselves as among those who were very lucky to have known her. She'll be in our hearts forever. Our thoughts are with her family, both immediate and her AAH family, now.

Though I never got to meet Nancy, I heard about all of her accomplishments thru her sister (and my good friend) April. I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. Our family is here for you in your time of need...

Dr. Crook was an inspiration for me. Her gentle way with animals has taught me so much in giving to my own many animals. She took good care of them always and made time whenever needed. Her loss is a tragedy. I can still feel her spirit all around my farm and I know she is looking over me and all of my animals. I will dance for her at Rhythm and Roots!! My heart and love is with you. I pray that you will stay strong through this hard time. I am so sorry for your loss. Love, Kristyn Hill

Those who are worn out and crushed by this mourning, let your hearts consider this:
this is the path that has existed from the time of creation and will exist forever.
Many have drunk from it and many will yet drink.
As was the first meal, so shall be the last.
May the master of comfort comfort you.
Blessed are those who comforts the mourners.
-Blessing of the Mourners
My heart goes out to all who knew and loved Dr. Nancy. She was a smart, caring, special person whose dedication to her profession (our animals) was unsurpassed. We love you Nancy, and know that you are at peace walking with the angels.

I continue to be deeply moved by the loss of so dynamic and caring a person as Dr. Nancy. I am stuggling to find reason or meaning in the loss to us all. I think we all recognized a force for good when Nancy entered our world. In a book of prayers, I found what I'd like to suggest was her life's mission. It's attributed to John Wesley..."Do all the good you can...By all the means you can...In all the ways you can...To all the people you can...As long as ever you can."

Dr. Nancy you will be missed by our family and our loyal pet Valentina . Your love for pets was seen every time we visited AAH . Many things in life cannot be explained the death of a love one especially . Why did this have to happen? God only can help us with those "Why?" questions. May you rest in peace.

We met Nancy when she was a young student at Michigan State. She is the daughter of our dear friends , Dick and Paula. She joined us for Thanksgiving dinner in Wheaton,IL that year. YOu knew right away that she would be a great vet. Good by,Nancy, you are with the angels now. Our prayers to all the family, God will hold you in his hands. Love, Leo and Peg McKenna

Saturdays will never be the same. Drexel and I would journey to Charlestown most every Saturday to visit Dr. Nancy with her healing needles. We count ourselves among the most fortunate to have known Dr. Nancy, Ron and the wonderful, caring staff at Atlantic Animal Hospital. I so admired the care, love and compassion that Dr. Nancy brought to all she did and to all she touched.
My hope is that all who knew and loved Dr. Nancy support, in some small or big way, all the good works in which she was so deeply involved and to which she was so personally dedicated thus allowing her legacy to be perpetuated and, above all, honored.

We will miss Nancy terribly. We now have someone else to pray to when our cats stay out all night! She and St. Francis will make quite the team taking care of all the pets in heaven and answering so many peoples' prayers.

I first met Nancy a couple of years back when she came to take my exercise classes. Though I know how hard it was for her to make time for herself, she recently returned and was always enthusiastic and happy to be there. We had many nice chats about music (she had a great ear--I will think of her every time I hear Vince Bell, one of her favorites), our kids, and vet school (our oldest is at at Purdue; Nancy was kind enough to e-mail her last year with some tips). She has been on my mind and in my thoughts and prayers since I got the news. I know she was a wonderful doctor, but she was also a motivated student who took our workouts seriously, but with a smile on her face. My heart goes out to her family, friends and the many human and otherwise lives she touched. The ladies and I will miss her.
