Nancy was our dearly beloved neighbor across the street and felt like family to us. We miss her terribly, but find solace that she's alive in our hearts.

I was so sorry to learn of Nancy's death. I enjoyed her and Alan so much when I lived in the neighborhood and attended First Presbyterian. She was a kind and wonderful woman.

Ever since Nancy arrived with her fine dog, Blue, on our street she was always a bright, friendly and cheerful presence. We enjoyed swapping dog, travel and book stories and other adventures with her. This lovely lady will certainly be missed. Our most sincere condolences to her family with a special hug to Shannon, who always had a friendly pack with her.
