I worked with Nancy at the Butler Library at Lindenwood for four wonderful years. She was lovely, smart, and gracious. I knew that she was one of the best in the library profession.

Nancy was one of my first professors. We later became colleagues and friends. She inspired me and I will miss our lunches together! I have many of her books and I will always treasure them! The Lord blessed me with her friendship. Rest in peace, my friend until we meet again.
