Where do I begin.I had the pleasure of meeting Nancy and Terry thru Greg Colbath..He was in a band with my husband Carl. Our friendship started as just getting together when Terry and Nancy came to see the band...Nancy and I would dance the night away..A very close bond was born between us...We started seeing Terry and Nancy socially for dinner and then when they moved to Falmouth we started visiting them for weekends in the summer and the fall. Oh the fun times we had..We shopped while the boys went fishing..She showed me many things..How to be a good friend, how to be a good mother, and how to be strong in the darkest of times...One week ago today, I said good bye to a very very close friend. I had the opportunity to be able to spend some precious time with her last week.I got tell her I love her. Something that is not said enough to those we love. This past fall Nancy showed and helped me make a wreath out of Bittersweet. This wreath will be made every year except now I will have to make it without her.

To her family my words can not express the heartache you feel. This one very special lady will always be with you as she will be with me..Keep her close to your heart..I love you Nancy Colbath and will miss you forever...Love Patti and Carl Gelormini
