Nancy is one of the sweetest ladies I have met! Whenever I would see her at the Stratford Arms, she would always take the time to stop and chat, Her gentle spirit would draw you to her. I look forward to someday seeing you on Glory!
From grammar school to the bridge table there are lots of good memories
with Nancy. And, I will enjoy them until we meet again.
As saddened as we are from the loss of Nancy, we will always cherish the fond memories of
the wonderful times we all had together over the years; especially the Family picnics we had with all our wonderful children together…
You will be sadly missed, but I believe you are with Jesus and your family who welcomes you.
Rest in peace dear friend….,
Nancy was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. So grateful to have been able to spend some time with her.
We are so blessed to be connected to Nancy through the Belton neighborhood and the Nursey School. A lovely, kind and courageous lady, who we know rests in God’s light. Our deepest condolences to her family she so loves.
To my wonderful friend Nancy,memories of all the good times will live on forever , I was blessed to be able to see her and say good bye,and she was resting,comfortable and warm and in no pain, thank you
Dear Family,
It was with great sadness I heard about your Mom. I am not sure you all realized not only was your Mom respected by all who met her but how much she was loved.
No matter how sad life’s journey was for her at times, she always had a comment to say coupled with her beautiful smile which made you feel better when trying to console her!!
She touched so many of us with her love of God, love of her family and her droll sense of humor. Your mom and grandmother left a quite a legacy.
The only thoughts that comfort me is that she did not have to suffer too long and that she will be reunited with Susan and Hope.
May all the beautiful memories of this very special woman comfort you in the days ahead.
What a wonderful lady! I loved all my moments I got to spend with Nancy during both my childhood & adult years. She was a kind, thoughtful, intelligent, strong, courageous & caring woman. My sincerest condolences to her incredible family. With our love & sympathy, Lisa & Tim Izant
Nancy was a delightful lady. She emanated kindness and gentility. I feel fortunate to have known her. We met at Laurelmeade playing bridge and we shared stories and generally some fun as well. I was looking forward to seeing her today and was shocked to hear of her passing. I will miss her very much. My sincere condolences to her family. She will be in my prayers.
Dear Nancy…..sweet friend. We knowYou are at Peace and with Your Bill, Susan and Hope. We’ve known each other for fifty fun years!! We’ll never forget You & Bill and will always keep You in our thoughts and prayers! xoxo

Nancy was my best friend. She was wonderful and we spent every afternoon together. I shall miss her so much but I am so grateful that she will no longer suffer both and physically.
Like so many, I am shocked at Nancy’ sudden passing, having just enjoyed lunch with her and our little St. Luke’s group last month. She was such a strong lady in a frail body and was an inspiration to me. May she rest in peace, out of physical pain, and full of joy over being with her family that she so grieved in the silence of her heart. My love and sympathy to all who were also blessed by her and now grieve her passing as we, her friends, do.
