To Nancy's family. Nancy was a special person and a very significant part of our grade school years. It was very rewarding to talk to her a few months ago after all those years, and I was hoping to see her at our class reunion. She was very rightfully proud of her sons, and I enjoyed the brief chat with Lowell. Regret comes in many forms, but as does fond memories. With condolences, Jim McConnell
