Nancy, we lost touch over the years, but we enjoyed good times when we lived up on the hill together as young sisters in law. You will be missed by all who knew and loved you. My sincerest condolences to all the family. Love, Mary.

What a wonderfully warm and happy woman ...she will surely be missed by a lot of folks.
Not only did she thoughtfully offer to puppy-sit my pooch when I last visited Nan and her BUT, she also put my daughter Renee up when she visited last Dec. This kindness helped Renee pull off a wonderful surprise visit for her Dad and Nani.
Let's keep all of the great memories on the front burner during this difficult time. Love/Hugs to all.

Nancy was such a kind, fun, wonderful person. I was so grateful to have spent time with her when I stayed with her this past December on a surprise visit to Florida. We talked a lot and laughed even more. I always loved spending time with her. She will be terribly missed. But countless amazing memories. My thoughts are with you all. Much love from Canada. xoxo
