When I think of Nancy the first thing that comes to mind is hearing her insatiable laugh. She was a lady so full of joy, it was always a pleasure being around her. Chris, I pray you will find comfort with all of your memories of your mom very soon.

My Granny,

There will never be enough words to say how much I will miss you. The bond and connection we had can never ever be replaced. You were everything to me since my fondest memory of being little. The memories I have are enough to last 15 lifetimes. Our little rowboats, spending the night every weekend, living with you and you facing high school with me, "Ruben Ruben," taking your clothes, laughing about salad shooter, and tons and tons more. I will love you forever and I will promise to share just how amazing you are with all my children. I love you forever Granny!!
