Among Nancy Jo's most significant accomplishments was raising her three children, whom she held as her pride and joy. Her grandchildren and great grandchildren were the joy of her life. She loved them all. She would just have to see them and she would light up. Yet even amidst the challenges life brought her way, Nancy Jo never wavered in her compassion for others. She continued to support her family and extend a helping hand to anyone in need. Her legacy is one of unyielding kindness and generosity. Even with little to spare, Nancy Jo continued to give and help others. Even when sick or in pain, she never faltered in caring for her loved ones more than she did for herself until she no longer could. Her life served as a testament to her and others, "You can be a survivor or you can be a victim."
