Nancy was my best friend for 60 years. She had the biggest heart, loved her family, was the best friend ever and was always trying to help someone in need. The world will be a much sadder place without her love and smiles.

Nancy was the best Mother in law I could have ever asked for. And in my time of stress going through divorce she brought me so much comfort to have someone to talk things through with. I will always miss her.
