Time is both our enemy and our ally. It takes those we love but it softens our grief. It is also the great equalizer. The richest man and the poorest man get twenty-four hours in a day and all the power and wealth on the planet cannot buy a second more, making the greatest gift for one human being to another your time. Nancy was generous to a fault. She would set aside her own wishes to help a friend or to be somewhere when she thought she was needed. It is what we loved the most about her. We will miss her. She was my wife, my business partner, my companion, but most importantly my friend; first and last. I will miss you. Your loving husband, Mike A Memorial Service will be held at a later date.
