Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry to hear of Nancy's passing. We have a lot of fond memories from the Moose Lodge.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of my friend Nancy. She was a fun loving person. She would call her self Salt and would call me Pepper. We had so much fun working together at RR Donnelley in Mendota, IL. You will be truly missed! Heaven gained another Angel!❤❤❤

Nancy, was a very sweet and caring individual. I initially met her @ Christopher & Banks - Peru Mall - and spoke with her all the time. She was a caring person and enjoyed all the bus trips! I will miss her. Pam L

So sorry to hear the sad news of Nancy's passing. I will miss hearing her laughter on the bus. Her absence from the group of ladies will be greatly missed.

Nancy was so much fun in school. In the later years our paths didn't cross until just in the last few years. She was still so much fun to be with. I will miss her smile and her genuine friendship. God Bless all of you during this most difficult time.
