Nancy and Family,



How sad I am to hear about your dear Mother's passing and even sadder not being in town to come to the funeral, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and all of your family.



I have such great memories of your Mom and the times we spent together are the courthouse. I remember my first week of working for the attorneys and going over to have the Judge sign a paper and meeting your Mom for the very first time. She was so kind and helpful and for 15 years that was alway the way she was. But through all of those years there was never a time that we wouldn't discuss her family. How blessed you are to alway remember how much she loved you.



I was talking to my girls and we talked about you Nancy and the fun times we had when you joined me and my three little girls on our DisneyLand trip. We still have fond memories of that time. Thank you for those memories.



Know you are always in our thoughts,



Shirley and girls

A once co-worker,

Peggy

Dear Nancy and Family,

How saddned I was to hear of your mother's passing. I have so many fond memories of eating mayonaise and lettuce sandwiches in her kitchen, and playing monopoly till dark. Your mother was like a second mother to me growing up. Those memories will be with me always. They take me back to a time when life seemed simple and carefree. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful, caring, and loving person.
