I met Nancy a couple of years ago where she was a bus monitor for East Providence Schools. She was a pleasant woman, always smiling and happy to see the kids. She is missed. I know it's only been a short while, but even this morning, I imagine her stepping off the bus to let the kids off. May her memory be a blessing to her family, friends, and to all those who knew her.
