We are so very sorry to hear of Nancy's passing. She was always like a second mom to us neighbor kids whenever we would check in while out and about on our adventures. I will always remember the great times had with her and family on their house boat on the river! Also, spying on Easter egg hiding from across the street in order to have that extra advantage when the hunt began. Thinking of you and your family and very sorry for your loss. Dan, Steph, and Lily Monigold
