I am the oldest of all the grandkids and have so many memories. From stomping on the mole humps on camby to her goofy self with my boys. She had a diffrent relationship with each of us grandkids and great grandkids but loved us all so much and was and always will be here and watching over us just like she always has. RIP Nan Boys, Kevin & I love you big as the sky!
I remember her coming down to my house to get Sheldon. it was the first night Sheldon ever spent away from her mom or her grandma. Sheldon got scared and her grandma had to come to my house to pick her up but after Sheldon seen her grandma she felt much better and Sheldon decided to spend the night after all.
I am so sorry for your loss… I went to high school with Nancy at Ben Davis and I also knew Don…My prayers are with you…Bonnie

I have sooo many good memories working with Nanc for 11 plus years. I also have regrets for not staying in touch. I think of her often. She always lighten my load and ALWAYS MADE me laugh. What a GREAT spirit she had/has and she is going to be missed something awful. Love you Nanc and the legs on your table.
