Nancy became an instant friend when I met her in Denton, and very much like my Big Sister in Alpha Phi. Always ready to laugh and be there when you needed a really good friend. I will miss not being able to call her. May God be with you and your family.

My heart goes out to family and friends. I still remember Nancy as Karen Dawsons' partner in crime when we were kids. Nancy was always good for a smile.
