My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go to all of the Fallaw family at this time. Nancy was a longtime friend. I first met Nancy when all our children were little through our friend Roberta Dicker. I remember going to Right to Life with her and my husband Keith. She, Armonie and I would have so much fun making Christmas stars and eating special made breakfasts for us at Bobbie Jo's Cafe. I know it was a long battle for her and now she's with Her Lord and Savior and so many loved ones. She will be sorely missed. Love you Nancy. Until we meet again.
