Nancy was a wonderful coworker at ASD. I will remember her as a kind, cheerful, and helpful person. I think of her from time to time and find comfort that she is reunited with her husband and resting in the loving arms of the Lord.

Two years! I can't believe it! I still think of Nancy and how kind and helpful she was to me when I worked in the Allentown School District. I hope she is at peace and with her husband in the loving arms of the Lord.

I am sorry I missed saying goodbye, Mrs. Cusati was always very kind to me and I always appreciated her for that. Dianne, I am so sorry to see that you lost both your parents in the past two years. I hope you are doing great in life. Please tell Greg I said hi and will you also pass on my condolences, late as they are, to your family? Thank you!

In the short time that I had the honor and privilege to know Nancy, she was very dedicated to the kids at William Allen and a passionate Union leader. May she rest in peace with her husband in the loving arms of God.

I am so sad to hear of Nancy's passing. She certainly was a dedicated educator and an avid advocate for our students. My classroom was next to the faculty room, so I interacted with Nancy, daily. WAHS suffered a great loss the day she retired and we all suffer an even greater loss today. Rip, Nancy

She was one of my teachers. Spoke to her and John during his treatments. Was always a highlight in my day. We loved playing Boggle in school during our down time. Miss them both greatly. Rest In Peace and Bless the family and friends.

Nancy was so kind and funny! When I started at Allen, I would sit with her and other ladies in the faculty room. She was very passionate about the union, and a wonderful colleague.
