I had the pleasure of working with Nancy at GTP. Nancy was one of the sweetest persons I ever met and she was such a lady. She spoke so lovingly of her family, I felt as though I knew you all. May God give you comfort and peace knowing she is with her Lord and Savior and suffers no more. She will be deeply missed. Our deepest sympathy.

I have so many fond memories of Nancy. She was such a positive role model for me as a young girl growing up in Halifax. I admired her strength, wisdom and love of family. She will be deeply missed by all that loved her.

Nancy will be greatly missed by her Christian Family at the Valleys. She was very active in our Church and we feel fortunate that she chose us as her extended family. May God bless her family during this difficult time.
