For some reason, I had just found out about Nancy's passing. To say the least, I was simply shocked. The one person in this world that was so genuine...the smile,the happiness, the laughter and her kindness to all and love for life. Well, Nancy...you earned your wings ten fold. God bless your family, and all loved ones which here where many and I know you are watching over all of them. Keep them smiling in heaven my friend. xxoo
