I met Nancy at Ann Arbor Bank and Trust, and she was always a bright, shining light to so many. We all enjoyed her spirit, wit, and humor.

In our last conversation, she spoke with such pride about her daughters and the many generations that followed—what an amazing life and legacy she leaves behind.

I was so sad to hear of Nancy´s passing. My condolences to her family. Keep all your wonderful memories close to your heart.

I have many fond memories from those days, especially working at the bank with her in downtown Ann Arbor. Rest in heavenly peace, Nancy.
