Nancy, I will miss you forever. Haven't seen you often, the past 10 years, but you always enjoyed talking to you, and a few visits. The world is a sadder place, without you in it.

So many nice things have been said about Nancy. That is because she was such a sweet and wonderful gal. I had the pleasure of meeting her in Savannah, GA and again in San Antonio. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. [email protected]

I have known Nancy almost all of her life. We grew up together and my family and Uncle Wayne's family were almost always close together. Nancy was special to me and I always thought of her as a sister rather than a cousin. Though we have not seen each other for many many years she has always been in my heart. We are family! May we soon meet, in paradise, in the presence of the Lord Jesus.

Africam brought us together years ago. We shared many hours of animal behavior and became good friends. Throughout her illness she was brave and optimistic. She said that her husband's favorite saying was, "We all have our own sack of rocks to carry, some are just heavier than others".
I will remember her wit, kindness and caring for others.
May the family get through the coming days with memories of happier times.

I got reconnected with my aunt Nancy the last couple of years through social media. It made me feel like I had family again. I always remember the times when the family was in Mena, Arkansas and how sweet she always was. She always had a smile and twinkle in her eye. I know she loved my dad very much and hope they are having a blast in heaven together.
