It was my privilege to have had Nan for a friend for over 40 years. The world has sadly lost an amazing woman. She was beautiful, kind, caring, smart, witty and oh so charming. Always a smile on her face. She had a way of always making you feel special. I will always love and hold you in my heart Nan. Rest well....
Terry and Mark, I have been thinking of you and will continue to do so.
With great respect,
Cindy Brown
