Nancy and I played jacks together at Ninth Ward School. We did a lot of laughing while sitting on the sidewalk off to the side of the entrance to the school. May she rest in peace.

I worked at Northern Center with Nancy. She was such a joy, always happy. She made a sometimes unpleasant job tolerable. Rest In Peace Dear Lady. My sympathy to her family.

Please accept my condolences on Nancy's passing. I have been reflecting on my growing up in Chippewa lately and Nancy was a very vivid part of that memory lane. We went to 9th Ward School together. Our favorite pass time was playing jacks during recess sitting on the sidewalk. She was a breath of fresh air for me then. May you find peace during this time.
