Nancy and I worked on our reunion committee, renewing our friendship from high school.
She was always cheerful, helpful, supportive, and hardworking, always a distinct pleasure to be around. One of our cherished memories will be celebrating Nancy and Stan's 60th wedding anniversary, last fall, with so many of their friends and family. We love you and miss you, Nancy.
