Not sure what to say?

Nancy you will be missed, you are such a smart, fun and determined woman, you accomplished so much and John and Jack are so blessed to have had you for the time they did. I have all those great memories for dinners together, especially the most recent, I will cherish those times forever. Please continue to look over John and Jack and guide them from above. Your friend, Bob

Being in Nancy's aerobics class in the eighties was what started us on a lifelong devotion to exercise and fun. She was a shining light. We miss her always.

Ms. Ditch was always amazingly kind, neighborly, and considerate. As I grew from an elementary-school classmate of of her son to a working adult living in the same neighborhood, her presence and that of her family walking, tending gardens, and running errands - and the pleasant words she invariably had for me, even as her illness intensified - gave me a precious example of true community. Rest in peace, Nancy. We'll miss you.

Singing with Nancy in the Kansas City Women's Chorus was a joy. For one season I was able to hear her sweet voice in my ear. She was kind, positive and most of all, lovely. She is missed.

Nancy was one of the kindest, strongest women I have ever known. I feel blessed and honored to have known her and to have been her friend. My children, Blake and Rachel loved her dearly also. We will miss her. And we are keeping John and Jack in our prayers.

I enjoyed knowing and working with Nancy. She will be missed by all!

John and Jack, I was so sad to hear of Nancy's passing. I pray that the memories she leaves behind will comfort you today and always. With much sympathy and love. Your friend from Mark's Pharmacy, Stephanie Salzer.

Nancy was a thoughtful person who cared about other people and I am a better person for knowing her!

So very sorry to hear about Nancy. She is home now with the Lord. Our prayers go out to you her family and friends.
