Aunt Nancy, god-mother, you will be missed by everyone. You were taken way to soon. I turned to do when I was doing crafts and even joked about how I needed lessons from you on how to crochet thoses beautiful blankets that you did so well. Mom & you were one of a kind and had a talent for making them along with the plastic canvas. I remember how we collabrated on the one project together and had so much fun. I miss you so much...Love Dawn

Aunt Nancy, you were just not my aunt but my god-mother. You were the one I talked to when I did crafts and we even collabrated and did a project together. I know I will never be up to your par & we joked about it a time or two & I said I needed to come over to learn how to crochet so I can do the awesome blanket designs that you do. Both you and mom were one of a kind when doing crochet & plastic canvas. I do Busha buns but i don't know if I can now do the crafts too.. I know when I do another cradt project, I will always remember you especially when I see a design & say gosh that's something that Aunt Nancy would love to do. I miss you and love you, till we meet again.....Love Dawn
