Nancy and Carlton traveled across the United States and Canada camping in their RV. She loved swimming, sailing, square and line-dancing, and visiting historical landmarks. Nancy was a nature-lover and got pleasure from studying birds, wildlife and flowers – particularly violets. She purposefully studied the Bible to nurture her deep personal faith that she lived and shared with others.
