Not sure what to say?

I worked with Nancy in Preop. She had a great rapport with the people she took care of & the people she worked with. She was witty & funny to be around. Her sudden illness & passing was so unexpected. I´m very happy I got to see her before she left to be with Char.

This breaks my heart. I found out about Nancy's passing and I broke down in tears. I worked with Nancy at Northwest Medical Center for 17 years before they changed hands quite a few years ago. She would always make me laugh, always complimented me on wha a good job I did in raising my daughter, whose now 19 years old and a student at Boston University and is also in the Army. She always made my day. She helped me through some difficult times in my life and for that I'm eternally grateful to...

I never had the chance to meet Nancy in person, but even from afar, I could see the deep and beautiful bond she shared with Ashley. Through the moments Ashley shared online, it was clear how much love, laughter, and strength they brought each other. My heart goes out to your family and loved ones during this difficult time. Wishing you comfort and peace in the memories you shared.

I really enjoyed working with Nancy at NW she was a pleasure! She will we truly missed.

I'm so sorry to hear of Nancy's passing! I went to nursing school with her at Pima Community College. She was a wonderful, fun & inspiring woman!!

Ashley and Stephen thank you so much for sharing your Mom with us! She was one of a kind and I enjoyed every minute around her! I had the pleasure working with her and going on girl´s trips with her. She was the life of the party! Nancy was such a cheerleader too, I appreciated her friendship and love! I will miss her terribly. She loved the two of you with all her heart and was very proud to be your Mom!

Oh Nancy I will really miss you!! Through a mutual friend, I met Nancy when she needed a cleaning lady!! We hit a friendship immediately! It was fun to go over to clean (conversation was fun, not the cleaning) We would go for lunch or dinner at times. When she drove, I feared for my life, but she got me home in one piece I will miss you fun lady but I know you are in a better place, and we will meet again!! Love you

She was a FANTASTIC preop nurse at NWH. I would always be happy with all the great care she rendered to our patients....sorry she is no longer with us :-(

I will miss seeing my childhood friend from 177th Street.
