Nancy was a warm and gracious woman. Dave and I were out of the country when she passed. Moland House was so happy to have her for a volunteer. Please except our deepest sympathy. Jo-Anne and Dave Mullen

Nancy was a great friend, she always had a story to tell. She was a encouragement to everyone she met. So many organizations will have a void now that she has left them. I met her at Moland House and she brought me to the sewing guild that she participated in. She will be a loss in my life , we had long talks on the phone in the evening. Will miss her.
