We first met Nancy and her family in 1967 when we moved to Wheaton and both families attended Aldersgate UMC. We were blessed by her friendship and caring through the years. Our prayers are with your family and may your many wonderful memories bring you peace.

Nancy and I didn't know each other well until we both lived at Brighton Gardens. We spent many happy hours together, over meals or playing games, attending activities. She helped to brighten my days when things weren't going well. A talented artist, her works will live on though she is gone. See you on the other side, Nancy.
