I went to Marine Military Academy In 1973. She and her husband Dave were hired as barbers there to give us the incoming shock haircut of our life since back then, long hair was the norm. I was sweating up a storm in a panic attack about getting my long hair cut off. Nancy calmed me down and said, "relax. It'll be ok". After that, she proceeded to remove probably 4 pounds off my head. Heavens to Betsy, one of the worst haircuts I ever had but Nancy made it seem not so bad.

A beautiful angel has found her restful home. I have known Nancy since childhood and she remained the sweet, happy, gracious and precious self into adulthood. She will be missed by so very many friends and I know Hershey Kisses were waiting for her when she arrived Home.

"My sincere condolences to the family. Nancy and I connected a few years ago as being related, we talked numerous times by phone and e-mail and she even made a trip to north Texas to meet in person.
We spent a wonderful day visiting and traveling back in time, we visited cemeteries in Bonham, Dodd City, Windom, Honey Grove even the Luttrell home place. I gave her a tour of places she had heard of, but never got to visit we combined our knowledge of our ancestors that day...
What a wonderful lady,
