To the Scheetz/Chumney loved ones,
I was a long-time classmate and close friend of Nancy's and was saddened when I learned of her death late last year. Nancy's humor and 'unapologetic straight talk' were her endearing trademarks! We classmates were so pleased that she came to our 50th reunion, my last time to see her. She will be missed and my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
