Our family has appreciated Nancy's ministry through Sunday School and Scripture memorization. Lisa, Matt and Michael loved getting those stars in their Bibles. And what a blessing Nancy was for her ministry to mission teams coming through Moscow. May God be with all the family. We cherish our memories of your time at Highview.
