Dear family, it has almost been a year, and it feels like only yesterday. I miss her as much today as I did the day she left me.

Tony and family. My brother Tom McCarty called me on June 28,2006 telling me that Nancy passed away. Please accept our families condolences on Nancy going to be with our Lord. I can still remember Tony and Nancy dating years and coming out to Jog Road for joint family parties. Those were the days and knowing Nancy was a big part of my younger days. The Fritz's and McCarty's were the history of Lake Worth, Florida. Love the Larry McCarty's of Houston, Texas.

Dear Tony and Family,

It was with sadness that I learned of Nancy's passing from my brother in law, Tom McCarty. I remember all the support your family gave our family at the times of our losses and I wish I could have been there to offer the same support. However, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Mom,

I was one of the people that used to think that you were cheated by having so many children and it would make me sad to think that if you would have stopped before me I wouldn't be here nor would I have the wonderful gifts that you left behind for us...my father, brothers and sisters. It is my family I consider my greatest treasure. Each one offers different and special talents and it is though them that I find comfort in this time of sorrow. Thanks Mom for them.I consider them your most precious gifts.

June 17, 2006

During a time of sorrow we learn how much our family and friends really mean to us. Thank you so much for your kindness and sympathy at a time when it was greatly appreciated.

Nancy Fritz, my dear grandmother and mother to my father and my aunts and uncles and wife to my grandfather died 6/7/06 @ 5:58 AM

We wish you were here but it's time for you to be in heaven,

We watched you suffer and depend on us in despair,

But now God has you and has answered our prayers,

No longer will you suffer, No longer will you dispair,

No longer will you depend

And watch hope slip through through the air.

Now that you are gone we will mourn and shed tears,

But when we think of you and wonder if you could still be here,

we picture you

Being happy and calmly don't wallow near.

Love,

Stephanie Fritz (13) daughter of Mark & Maureen

The American Sewing Guild's Ft. Lauderdale Chapter sends it's sympathy for your loss. As President, I didn't know Nancy but I felt the impact of your loss through the expressions from our members who knew her. To lose a member, it's just like losing family. Many will miss her. I speak for the many members she came in contact with, by wishing your family strength and endurance in this time of sorrow.

I'm terribly sorry for your loss. I understand how you feel (if that helps). I just went thru this with both of my parents, in the last 3 years. It was really unusual that I was there just at that moment. I'm glad, I was, if it helped you (Bernadette).
