Last night we were very sad to learn of Nancy's passing. We shared many good times when our kids were small, and more when they were growing up. Our playgroup was lots of fun when she lived in Park Forest while Ian was in preschool. We have fond memories of those days. Nancy was warm, caring and friendly and I wish we could have gotten together more in recent years. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Ian, Rachel and the family.

We were so sorry to hear about Nancy. Nancy and I were childhood friends who attended Luella and later Bowen on the south side of Chicago. Much later in life we worked together in our temple's library. She was always a caring person who genuinely took an interest in what people had to say. Judy joins me in expressing our condolences to Nancy's family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family in their time of sorrow. I knew Nancy when we lived down the street from each other in Park Forest, sitting on the front porch watching our children play. I am sorry we lost touch with each other, Nancy was a genuinely kind & caring person, friend and mother. I will always cherish those memories.
