Dear Lewis Family-
I am so sorry to hear of Nancy's passing last November. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Nancy was a very dear friend of mine in ninth grade when we first moved to Lido in Newport and we didn't know anyone. She always made me laugh and exposed me to horses, sabots and dalmations! Peace be with you-

Lewis Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. May Nancy be at peace and may your hearts heal with the memories of Nancy's sincere, benevolent and ever loving ways.
A smile crosses my face when I think of the days in room #7 at the Gamma Phi house. She was loved.

Dear Lewis Family,
We are so saddenened by the loss of Nancy. She was such a beautiful person, not only outside, but from within her heart. It reminds me how fragile a precious life is and how sorry I am that we lost touch over the past 10 years or so. When I think of Nancy, I remember her abundant thoughtfulness, her gentle spirit of kindness, her beaming smile and that twinkle in her eye...she was always up for fun! She was a LIGHT. May she rest in Peace with our loving God.
Please know that your entire family is in our constant prayers during this incredibly difficult time and beyond. May time heal your sorrows, may friends and loved ones heal your pain, may the Lord's peace replace the heartache and may warm memories of Nancy's light remain.
Sincerely,
Jodie (Humble) Nyberg

My thoughts are with you all in this very sad time, what I remember of Nancy was her uplifting smile and her kind heart ! I was fortunate to run into her not to long ago when I was at Flemings for dinner with my family ....And although I had not seen her in years she had a smile and a warm hug for me.
My Love and thoughts go out to you.

It is with warm memories that I remember Nancy and with sadness and tears that I have just learned of her passing. I wanted to send my warmest wishes and condolences to the Lewis family--to her children, her mom, her siblings--and to all who knew and loved Nancy. I knew Nancy during our "Camp Fire Girl" days in Claremont and was looking at some old pictures of our group just last weekend. Nancy was truly a kind and fun-loving person and I, too, was so glad to see her again at our reunion just a few years ago. My deepest sympathies.

Dearest Lewis Family:
A quick note to tell you how encouraging I found the service to be. I thought the readings were lovely and the ministers words right on. I hope his words gave you some peace as they strengthened mine.
As you know, I was a sorority sister of Nancy's and a friends in the years out of college. She was a great friend and a contagiously warm person. She will be missed by so many.
Keep your chins up and your prayers constant.
