So sorry to hear Nancy had passed away. I know my daughter Brittany thought the world of her and loved her. I didn’t know Nancy well but, from the few times I did spend time with her I came to like her, respect her and I know she was a great lady. I am sure she will be sorely missed by all who knew her. I am sure she is in her new perfect body in heaven, no more pain and illness, she is with those she loved who had gone before her and watching over her family with love.
My prayers and thoughts are with you all during this sad time.
May God Bless you all with love and support at this difficult time.

Dearest Peter
Thinking of you and your extended family I always thought your sister was so funny and kind. Growing up she always made me feel welcome. I wish it were these simpler times again. Playing in the vacant lots and hiking the warm rocks and the childhood crushes. I hope all the fond memories bring you comfort. Thinking of you. Hoping to see you. Hugs
