So, sorry to hear of Nancy's passing. I remember spending time together with her as Kim & my daughter Susan Beale Brown were in so many activities together growing up in Western Branch. Please know you are all in my thoughts.

My thoughts and prayers are being sent to all of you in the loss of Nancy; beloved wife, Mother and Grandmother.
Nancy was a very special person. I'm sorry I can't be with you.

Our escapades always brought fun and laughter. She will always be remembered with love.

From rides in the grocery getter to life in general, you will always be momma Fritts!

I was so heartbroken to hear of Nancy's passing. I've known Nancy since I was five years old and Curt and I were in school together but I got the opportunity to really get to know her while in high school youth group at Aldersgate. She was a truly special special woman who touched so many lives. I still have the letters she wrote to me while at Chrysalis and will cherish them forever :) She will always hold a special place in my heart and she will be missed by many!! Much love to you all as...
