It is always a sorrowful day when a classmate that you have graduated with passes on and even more so when it is someone like Nancy who was always a delight and a pleasure to be around!

Dear Kelly, Jimmy, Jack and Family,
My deepest soul felt sympathy for the passing over of Nancy. I hold many found memories of my early childhood spent with your family. I hope the following will ease your grief.
FOR THOSE I LOVE AND THOSE WHO LOVE ME
WHEN I AM GONE, RELEASE AND LET ME GO
I HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO SEE AND DO
YOU MUSTN’T TIE YOURSELF TO ME WITH TEARS
BE THANKFUL FOR OUR BEAUTIFUL YEARS
I GAVE TO YOU MY LOVE, YOU CAN ONLY GUESS
HOW MUCH YOU GAVE ME IN HAPPINESS
I THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE YOU EACH HAVE SHOWN
BUT NOW IT’S TIME I TRAVEL ON ALONE
SO GRIEVE AWHILE FOR ME , IF GRIEVE YOU MUST
THEN LET YOUR GRIEF BE COMFORTED BY TRUTH
IT’S ONLY FOR A TIME THAT WE MUST PART
SO BLESS THE MEMORIES WITHIN YOUR HEART
I WON’T BE FAR AWAY, FOR LIFE GOES ON
SO, IF YOU NEED ME, CALL AND I WILL COME
THOUGH YOU CAN’T SEE OR TOUCH ME, I’LL BE NEAR
AND IF YOU LISTEN WITH YOUR HEART YOU’LL HEAR
ALL MY LOVE AROUND YOU, SOFT AND DEAR
AND THEN WHEN YOU MUST COME THIS WAY ALONE
I’LL GREAT YOU WITH A SMILE AND SAY
“WELCOME HOME”

To Nancy's Family: Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. As a resident of the Burgh, my sister and I went to school with Nancy. Although I didn't get to know Nancy as well as my sister, Michele, I always heard the wonderful stories of her accomplishments and successes over the years.
She leaves a great legacy to her family, and her many friends.

Jim and I met Nancy while working at Kinney & Associates in 1995. Nancy was such a wonderful person, always smiling and friendly. Although we have not been in contact with Nancy for several years, we were very saddened to hear of her passing. I know that she is in a better place though that does not make it easy for those that she left behind. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

I am so saddened to learn of Nancy's passing. Her mother and mine were first cousins and I feel blessed tohave had my cousin Nancy in my life--we have kept in touch by email and I will miss the contact.

I was blessed to meet Nancy and her beautiful family over 18 yrs ago while waiting tables at Testo's Restaurant in Lansingburgh. We immediately connected and remained friends over the years. I called after Jimmy's accident to let her know I was praying for them. Her passing comes as a shock to me for I did not know she was sick. That does not surprise me because she was such a strong woman. I will be forever grateful to have known you Nancy. From the time we first met until the time we last spoke you have always been an inspiration to me. Your family was blessed to have had such an amazing wife and mother. Rest in peace my friend.

My Sincere Sympathy to Jack, Kelly, Jimmy, and their families. Nancy was an exceptional woman, a lifelong friend, a dedicated community activist, as well as a "Burgh" advocate for education and the interests of the Lansingburgh residents. She will be sorely missed, but will always be admired and remembered, as the deeply committed, beautiful woman, that she was. Nancy, thanks for the wonderful memories.

Jack, Kelly and Jim - We are saddened at Nancy's passing, yet know she is in a place made specially for her - a place where there is no pain or sorrow, - a place of peace and total healing. We have been greatly blessed to be neighbors for 23 years. Nancy was a great support and encourager to me when we moved in and I was a young mom. There were many days when her chats with me - were a lifeline. She has celebrated joyful family milestiones with us and has offered kind words and support in sad times. We love you all and are here for you in anyway you need.
You are in our prayers - may you feel the Lord's peace in this sad time for your family.
"Christ will open the kingdom of heaven to all who believe in his Name, saying, Come, O blessed of my Father; inherit the kingdom prepared for you" May Nancy now partake of her heavenly inheritance.
Love, Rev Kathy, Earl, Melissa and Grace Coons
