I spent all of my childhood years with Nancy. We went from Kindergarten through twelfth grade together. She was always a fun loving friend for me.

I went to school with Nancy from Kindergarten to our graduation in 1970. We were close friends. I introduced her to Frank. I will always honor her memory.

Dear friends, family, and loved ones:
I just wanted to personally thank everyone for their overwhelming support in our time of sorrow. Obviously, the last few months have been very difficult for all of us, but the countless thoughts and prayers we have received have truly been uplifting. All of us already miss her terribly and wish that things could have been different, but it's gratifying for me and my family to know that all of you have been, and and always will be, there for us. Thanks again for everything and take care. God Bless You, Mom.
