Nancy Ivas

Dear Emily and James,
We just learned about your mom's passing and are shocked and very, very sad. Nancy was a kind, hardworking woman who loved you two beyond words. Although we never met you, please know that we are thinking of you and wishing you both peace and warm memories of your mom.

Emily and James & Family, I was so sad to hear about the passing of your mom...Nancy was a good friend and an adoring mother! We spent many laughs together after dropping our girls at pre-school (yes, many years ago, but it seems like yesterday!) or watching them in dance class. We shared our love of dogs and the importance of women's health issues. We trained for and completed the 60- mile Avon Breast Cancer together...a very meaningful journey for both of us!

Nancy was warm,...

My deepest condolences to the family, may you find comfort and strength from the God of all comfort in this difficult time (Isiah 26:19)

Emily and James
We are so shocked and so sorry to hear this news. I was just thinking about your mom the other day and how I needed to get in touch with her, perhaps she was sending me a message and then saw this. I loved our friendship and always so much appreciated our chats about life, her support and advice. The world has definitely lost one of its shining stars. You two were so very lucky to have had her for your mom. Please get in touch with me Emily, as I would love to talk to you...

Emily & James, my deepest sympathy to you and family. Your Mom was my friend. We shared many talks and good laughs, some tears and always her joy at being your Mom.
She taught me much and was always there for me.
My heart is sad...this world needs her and she's left too soon.
Carry her love in your heart and make others smile the way she always did.
Love to you both. My prayers are with you.
