We only knew Nancy as someone we enjoyed visiting with and getting help from when shopping at the Tom Thumb at Shiloh and Arapaho. We only just heard about her death today *10/14/18* and were deeply saddened. We know she was looking forward to being closer to family...and now that final hug at the store is all the more poignant.
She will stay with us.....her smile and spirit are something we will not forget.

RIP.

Love, hugs and prayers to Nancy's sweet family. Our childhood friendship continued through becoming adults, parents and grandparents. We often shared the joys of being with our grandchildren. She was a wonderful person.
May you be comforted by sweet memories of good times together!

I always saw Nancy with a smile on her face and a joyful spirit. She was a beautiful, kind and loving woman. I know her family already misses her terribly. Her passing was too soon and it hurts my heart. My prayers are with you all. Love, Vicki

I have worked with Nancy at Tom Thumb for some time. I hit it off with her right from the start because she had a wonderful sense of humor and always had a helping spirit. Work just doesn't seem the same without seeing her smiling face every day. I can't believe she left us so soon, but I know she is rejoicing in Heaven, and I take comfort in that. I will always cherish the friendship we had, and I look forward to seeing her again someday and sharing some more laughs. My heart goes out to her family. May you find peace and comfort at this difficult time.
