To Nancy's Family,
May all the memories be precious to you.
I got to know your mother when I worked for Omega and I come to the house and draw her blood.Every time Nancy moved I followed but the last time was in Mohnton and I had to call her and she talked to me until she got me to the house.Well let me tell you I never forgot how to get there.
I also got to see her in the hospital and that brought me such joy. When I would have to come to her to draw her blood I would try to make her my last stop so I could visit with her. She 's such a dear person.
I was sadden to see she past.
Nancy Rest in Peace
