Hello Nancy, I hope you are resting easy up there with the angels. I know I never had the privilege of meeting you but I was able to make good friends with your two daughters; Kiyana and Makhaya. I just want you to know you did a very good job with raising respectable young women.
Rest Easy Nancy Ventress. <3

Oh Nancy... Everytime I saw you, you had me cracking up. Between you and Natalie, I don't know who had me dying the most. I still can't believe you're gone and was heartbroken when I heard the news of you passing. I thought about how hard it was gonna be on your kids but I know between Jaccie and Jono and the rest of the family, they are gonna be much taken care of. I miss you Nancy. R.I.P.

Dear Nancy my dear friend whom I met while serving time in DWCF. I'm truly hurt to learn of your death, I thought it was just a rumor (actually prayed). I want to send my deepest condolences to ur daughters and family. Nancy was my ray of sunshine in a dark and lonely time in both our lives. Her smile would brighten my day. She was a beautiful person who loved her babies deeply. She talked about you, Makyia everyday.

R.I.P Nancy... What I remember about you most was how in 9th grade you told me to "grow a backbone and be strong" when some girls were messing with me on the bus ride home from school. You encouraged me to stand up for myself and not take crap from people. From that day to now, I have taken that advice and encouragement throughout my life. So, I thank you for that. I will always remember your contagious laugh. :) May God comfort and keep your children and family.
RestInParadise Nancy.

I loved you so very much, but God loved you more. May my niece rest peacefully in Gods care, and my family grows closer to God, He's your source and strength and will take care of you just for the asking. Let us as a family stay strong and a lot closer to each other and it should be, one can't fall for the other one holding them up. And remember love God with all your heart, all your soul and all your mind, this is the greatest commandment and the second one is like it, love your neighbor as you love yourself, for how can you say you love God and despise your neighbor you see everyday. Let's love each other, Mom would want it this way, let's let her memory of the love she had for us, shine on each other and we love one another, Your big brother and uncle, Ronnie. I love you all so very much.

I didn't know Nancy for very long, but from what I can tell, she seemed like a very genuine person. Every time I saw her she was doing something for someone. There are many qualities that I saw in Nancy that anyone could take from in order to improve their lives. With that said, Nancy you'll be missed.

It will be the little things
that we will remember,
the quiet moments,
the smiles, the laughter.
And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories
of these little things
that help to push
away the pain
and bring the smiles
back again. You will always be in my heart cousin your gone but NEVER forgotten. WE love and miss you Ventress we had some great times together cousin and I'll always cherish those memories I had with you.

Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once again.
Although, we must say farewell, Nacey enjoy your New Beginning and You will continue to be love.
