Not sure what to say?

I recall memories of Nancy at Deering High and a pool party she hosted in Westbrook. She had a well developed sense of humor and kept us laughing. Sending her family my sincerest sympathies. With the fondest of memories.

Nancy. I didn't know her very well but I thought she was awesome. With her one of a kind laugh and constant smile. She was a lot of fun to be around, she had a great energy.
I'll miss her..
Wherever you are Nancy, keep on rockin!

Although I can not be there with you both,you are in my heart and prayers and always have been.Physical contacts are only superficial,but what is always in are hearts true and real.
Love Grandma

Nancy...

"A truly strong woman is a force that is so very dynamic
A woman whose strength comes natural and is somewhat majestic
It is an innate inclination, impulse and drive
She loves and accepts herself completely, knows shes not perfect yet and still she strives
A strong woman is no more in control of how she feels than anyone else
She's merely choosy, for she knows completely the full value of her self
She is not foolish, nor unintelligent,...

The first time we met Mom was at a party for you Jen. I thought that she had one of the most beautiful smiles. Later on as we got to know her better I realized that she was as beautiful on the inside as her smile. Now we know where you get it from. Thinking of You All

Our thoughts and prayers are with you both, Jenna and Adam and I send my sincere love. Only God has the answer to Why?
Please get in touch when you can.
I am unable to travel right now, or I would be up there for you guys.
Love Aunt Joyce and Uncle Fran

To Nancy,
You were and are a

'Phenomenal Woman'
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies,
I'm not cute of built to suit fashion model's size
Ben when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips,
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you...

Nancy always made me smile. God bless all of you who love her still.

Jenna and Adam -

I worked with your mom for many years at MMC. During that time, she and I had lots of long talks sharing the trials and tribulations of parenting. She loved you dearly and always wanted the best for you. She was as very special person and will be missed by all who knew her. May God bless you all.
