I grew up with Nancy ..we lived in the same neighborhood in Doylestown . I was devastated and shocked when I heard the tragic news . My deepest sympathies go out to her family and husband . I had not seen Nancy in years but will always remember that beautiful smile that she had. Again, I am so sorry for the loss of two amazing people in your life.

Nancy was such a wonderful person and caregiver!! She took such good care of our daughters (Olivia and Avery Green); we were blessed to find such a great school and great teacher. Many of our best memories living in PA involve Nancy and the other teachers at TLC. Few people will touch as many lives as Nancy did....she will be missed.

Early this morning my sister contacted me from the bucks county area where we were raised to inform me of the devistating news. Nancy and I grew up together in our junior high school years and immediately bonded for life. We celebrated her parents new home in new hope, and I was there for her weeding as one of her brides maids at the museum in Doylestown pa! I adored her parents and I was immediately adopted as a family member. Every now and again nancy and I would catch up on life events such as Preston and Donny and his children.
I am sad and shocked to have lost such a dear and admiral friend of my childhood and continuing adult years. I wish all of the family Janice, Paul, Jamie and Greg my sincerest condolences for such a significant loss to such a wonderful individual. I miss her and she has and will always be in my thoughts.
Sorry we are unable to make the services.

I was and am so unbelievably shocked and saddened by this tragedy. I didn't know Nancy well and never met Preston, but my sister works at TLC and has for a few years and Nancy has been SOOOO great to her, especially after the birth of her daughter, Gracyn. What an amazing woman and such an unbelievable impression and impact she made in the world. And my son is named Preston, so I will think of them often when saying his name. Both gone way too soon. I am so very sorry.

Preston was a good person and an even better friend. My life will never be the same without him. He was kind to everyone no matter what and was completely opposed to any type of violence. I will always remember him. R.I.P. buddy

I am shocked and saddened by the sudden death of Nancy and her son. I had the pleasure of working with Nancy in the late 80's early 90's at Schoolhouse in Warminster. Her love & patience with children was so natural to her.
Rip Nancy..
