Aunt Nancy-younger sister of my Dad George. Your presence in our lives will be deeply missed, and you are so loved by so many of us. You always made me laugh, offered great advice as needed, and I will see you again. Give my Mom a hug for me.

Nancy Katheryn was two and a half months older than I, so I was called Nancy Lee. We shared Ollie & Herman as our Grandparents. May she rest in peace.

You were the best mom anyone could ever ask for. You were selfless, giving and taught me the love of the outdoors. Thank you for being my mother!

My Aunt Nancy, sister to my mother, was always fun, even when we caused trouble. I spent many summers under her rule living in the basement of her home in Cascade as a teenager. We were always so sure she had no idea what we were up to, but we were fools to think that! She was fun and loving, and a fun-loving member of our family and I miss her every day. We'll all see you again one day, and in the meantime, keep Uncle Dick in line, will you?

Patty, David the the Deeds family,I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother always had a smile on her face. I remember the first summer after we moved up to Cascade, we had a bear show up at the house and I called your house upset. Your Mom was so calm and it helped calm me down until your Dad came up. Memories.. May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of all the great times you had with your Mom.
