Nancy was a wonderful lady! She was my mom's real estate agent, and helped in so many ways not only before the sale, but afterwards. We always considered her a friend! Also, Steve was a co-worker with me at James River corporation in Hazelwood. What a bright and nice man! I loved his red convertible Mustang! My deepest sympathies to his children and family.
