Kent & Nancy- I'm sorry about Kent's mother. What an attractive woman. She obviously lived a long, full life of 94. I'm certain that you will be sharing lots of loving memories. Prayers.

Nancy was my mother's accross the hall neighbor at 50. Ironically my mother just passed 3/1 at the age of 102. They enjoyed a nice neighborly friendship for years. Nancy always passed her Sunday New York Times onto Mom. Nancy was a beautiful woman whom I frequently saw walking about the neighborhood where we also resided.
Our deepest condolences.

Nancy was my fathers younger sister. She was a stunningly beautiful women, who had style and grace. The times spent with the Novit's are cherished childhood memories. There was no one more fun to be around than Uncle Sid, and his family. Aunt Nancy lived a long a long and interesting life. And we shared the same birthday. Good journey Aunt Nancy. Will always remember you
