    Nancy was the most kind hearted and strong willed person that I have ever met. The days that you stayed for me at Bobs and let me leave early for dances will never be forgotten. Nancy you are so loved my dear, and you will be so very missed. I send my prayers out to Brandon, and everyone in the family.

    Sherry,

    Tonight when you look up, don\’t think of them as stars, think of them as porch lights welcoming your loved one safely home.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    I\’m sorry to hear about Nancy\’s passing. We are planning our 50 year class reunion, TCHS class of 1962, and were hoping Nancy would be able to attend. Hopefully, we will see Dickie. Sandy told me that Nancy had planned to attend when she received her first letter about the reunion, but later realized that she was probably to sick to make the trip to Madison. She will be honored at the reunion along with the 5 other deceased classmates. I pray that you will received the comfort of the Holy Spirit during your time of grieving. God Bless.
