We had the pleasure of knowing Ben and Nancy for 40 years. We always looked forward to their visits with their students to Las Golondrinas, and the hands on activities they created, from blacksmithing to weaving, created a template for activities at the Museum today. Nancy’s genuineness, boundless energy and enthusiasm will be missed.
