Dear Zagar Family,
I just found out about Nancy. I'm so sorry. Some of you may remember me and some do not know me at all. I use to take care of George and Nancy many years ago. For many years even after the passing of George. He made me laugh every day. Nancy the sweet person to me. I thought of her as family and would do anything for her even if I didn't work for her. We would get ourselves in such a mess then just sit and laugh about it. She taught me much about life and I still do some of it to this day. I regret losing touch with her. So many times I would think of going to see her and now there is no more time. I know for a fact that she loved all of you. We would sit and talk about her grandkids and kids. Nancy I'm sending a smile up to you. I promise to keep writing everything down also. I'm sorry for your loss. Nancy WILL BE MISSED BUT NEVER EVER FORGOTTEN!!

Sorry for your loss,She talked about her girls a lot and was very proud of them. Nancy was a wonderful person, I enjoyed doing her hair at Cardinal woods. She was always upbeat and had a great sense of humor. She will be missed.
