Nancy always had a smile. She was a quiet & friendly person. She loved singing in the Community Choir as I do. Prayers for her family and many friends.

In 10th grade I struggled with history and although she wasnt teaching that specific class she went out by offering to help me after school. She was one of the most outgoing teachers and appreciated all that she did for me, and admired how she greatly helped others. Thank you Mrs D for everything you done for us, you made a difference.

Nancy was an awesome educator. Dedicated to her students and a avid fan of our wrestling program at Penn Yan Academy for the twelve years I was Varsity Coach. Nancy gave tirelessly to our students that were in need of help. I will miss her immensely. A great friend. My heart goes out to her family and friends. You are loved by many.

Mrs. Davis showed my children compassion, as I myself have leukemia. To have that, during school hours, I was very thankful ! May you rest in peace and many blessings be bestowed on you and your family!!
My daughters, Marilyn and Brianna were thankful to have you as a teacher!
God Bless!

Mrs. Davis was one of the most caring teachers at Penn Can Academy. I never had the honor of being a student of hers for English 10, but I still was able to meet her. She offered to help me one day when my English 10 teacher wasn't available after school. She told me that "I was a good student I" and "Mrs. James is lucky to have a student like you."
My senior year, I had Mrs. Davis for study hall. She always made sure that her study hall was as quiet as humanly possible. However, she always had fun music playing at a soft level, and she would take 2-3 minutes during study hall to talk about good books with me. She will be missed so much by everyone.
