Oh, my dearest Nancy! I just now found you and so I am sending up my love to Heaven, where you abide. You lived in Vacaville for years and then you and your husband moved to Eureka to bless the folks therein. I miss you so much. I will do good deeds in your memory.

Nancy is a Saint! Today she answered a special prayer request as I brought flowers to her resting-place. Thank you, Nancy, for all the good examples you gave me to remember you by. You are my Icon, and I shall never forget you.
