We first met Nancy at her son Nicks house , Nancy was a fun person to be around. It was so evident that she cherished her family. Always helping with the grandchildren, helping in the garden and cooking for everyone. She was a very down to earth person who also loved animals. Nancy will truly be missed by so many people, her warm smile, her eagerness to help, her very presence. She´s one of Gods angels now, may you rest in peace in Gods loving Heaven.

Nancy was a remarkable woman who touched the hearts of all who knew her.
She found joy in the simple pleasures of life, like cooking for others, which brought her immense happiness. Her love for Disney was a testament to her vibrant spirit and sense of adventure. But above all, Nancy cherished her family.
Nancy's legacy of love, strength, and resilience will forever live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her. May we find comfort in the beautiful memories we shared with her and draw inspiration from her incredible life.
Rest in peace, Nancy. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
