Donna, Steve, Matt & Family,
Heaven has definitely gained another Angel. Nancy was such a blessing to us all and every time you saw her she was wearing that beautiful smile no matter if in pain or not. God needed an extradionary Christian lady and saw fit to call her home. You have all been blessed with such a wonderful mother and she will never be forgotten. I am sure she is laughing and filling in my Mom and Dad up on all the news down here on earth. They always thought the world of her. When we got together we would always have such a good time. She was the sweetest person you would ever want to meet. We will miss you so much Nancy but you know how much we love you. God bless you sweet friend.

What a delightful person Miss Nancy was. I will always remember the many Appomattox Railroad days that you came to my house and watched the parade. We would enjoy lemonade or hot chocolate depending on the weather. You always had a smile on your face and a kind word to say. Im so grateful that I visited you this past Christmas day and even with all that you were going through, you still had a smile on your face. You told me that you were blessed and that the Lord was always with you. I was truly Blessed to know you and will miss you. (I'm going to keep an eye on Steve for you too)
I know Jesus was waiting with open arms for you my friend.

Nancy was a very special lady and I was blessed to know her. I know Heaven is beautiful, but it is brighter today because Nancy's sweet face is shining and smiling and seeing all the family and friends that greeted her. I'm sure by now she's found Jack, Daddy and Uncle Harry sharing all their childhood stories!!! Thank you, Jesus, for this place called Heaven. My love to all of Nancy's beautiful family.

I am so glad I got to know you Nancy. Your infectious smile and laugh will forever be a reminder that even in bad times you can find a bit of happiness. I sure will miss that most. But the best thing is that this isn't good bye..it's I will see you soon! I am sure you are telling everyone up there all your funny stories. And you are keeping everyone in stitches..
