I worked with Nancy for over 20 years at Skyland off and on and no one ever ran her job better...many times I'd hear in her raspy voice " Jim when you going to get this room set?" Or " Jim don't put those tables to close we can't get around them" . Well now heaven just got the best Head waitress ever!
