Ms Nancy was the best client (friend) in all my years of care giving I have ever known .Many laugh's we had and lots of trouble we got into .She loved every one of her children dearly we had many talks from her teen days to her last days , when I would orientate her and tell her she was 99 she would laugh and say now when did I become 99 and all we could do is laugh . I loved Ms Nancy as she was one of my family . Prayers for the family and Love you all .

Shirley and Family,
I remember Mrs. Dillard for her kindness to stop and pick us up (my siblings and me) on rainy school day mornings so we did not have to get soaked walking to school. She also was my 4-H leader my first year - I still have the gingham check apron she helped me make! My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Nancy Lee Beeler Dillard was an amazing woman. I got lucky when I married one of her sons, Ronnie Dillard. She was the best mother-in-law a girl could ask for. Not once in the 55+ years I knew did she ever utter a complaint or unkind word to me. Nancy was an accomplished seamstress, and could feed her whole family on 1 pound of hamburger. She loved her family. Nancy will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
