Rest in peace dear friend. Thank you for all you have given to me as a council sister.

Nancy was a good friend, co-worker and council member. She was creative and caring and helped others in need. Nancy was a mentor to many and was a wonderful leader. She had a great sense of humor and her smile was like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. We will miss you, dear friend and council sister.

Nancy is someone I'll never forget, always gracious, giving, and a go-getter. She had many interests and a great sense of humor. I always appreciated her kindness. I am glad I knew her. She will be missed.

Nancy was a true mentor to me as a member of the Orlando Diocesan Council of Catholic Women. Nancy, I know you have left a lasting imprint on the hearts of the many people with whom you came in contact over the years. I still have the hand made angel pin you gave me at a President's breakfast many years ago. Rest peacefully now - you have earned a well deserved rest.
