I didn´t know Nancy well but she was a great friendly helpful neighbor who helped me out a couple times with my dogs without even a second thought I really liked her and will miss the very positive person that she was.

I will never forget the days we had at Calvin U. Smith Elementary School. Nancy always made me smile and we had so many great laughs together. She would always text me a picture of the sign of Sidney, NY when she was passing by it. We realized, by a conversation one day, that we had a familiar stopping ground. She cared deeply for all of the children whose lives she touched every day. We were all very fortunate to have know such a wonderful lady. Love you!! Karen Hill

I am truly sorry for the loss of your mom.
Your mom was an amazing woman! I worked with her for over twenty years and will always treasure her friendship, her smile and her beauty. She was a champion in school and in the community. She will be missed dearly.

Nancy was a good friend whom I met in 1986, she was a person with grace. She never complained about anything, always had a smile and encouraging words to say. Yes, I will miss her.
