Tracy, Lisa, Donna, and family, we are sad but can only smile and be forever thankful for all the fun times we had with Nancy and Alan since we settled full time on Old Wharf Rd in 2001. We thought your words about Nancy always, always having a story to share was spot on. You probably know this but most of her stories were about each one of you all. Of course, living in White Plains and Sudbury, Nancy had another source of many funny experiences with their very close long-time friends. Because of Nancy´s tales, and although we had never met these people, we were always made to feel part of their pretty special life. Not sailors, Nancy and Alan regaled us with stories about sailing and yacht club soirees. Because Nancy was always fashionably dressed, we could easily envision her as "head turning special" at those events. Unfortunately, that left an opening for me to refer to her as "Nancy May, the Queen of Kickamuett Yacht Club" and not Jamestown´s Conanicut Yacht Club, a title that always produced Nancy´s beautiful smile. To Nancy, no story was just words, it was about feelings, confirming to us that Nancy was a gift to anyone who ever met her. We are very thankful to be included in that list.

To Lisa and Family, I wish to honor and celebrate the Life of your Mom - A woman who brought such warmth and joy to our world. While we'd not met personally, I knew from your stories, that she lived Life with a rare grace, and deep appreciation of nature ... To her beloved family, please know how deeply she is admired. The beauty your Mom has given to our world will live on - in those she's loved and all the lives that she has touched. In loving memory, Ann
