Nancy had a rare combination of wit and intelligence. I consider it a privilege to have been her friend going back to our days in Augusta.

Hers was a life well lived. My best to Bill and to the rest of the family.

My sincere condolences to all of Nancy's family and dear friends...you are in my thoughts and prayers. I fondly remember visits to Russellville to visit my cousins Amy and Walker, eating great home cooked food, watching Nancy knit and playing with the furry Elkhounds. She touched so many hearts and many babies with her hand made booties. Rest in peace Nancy, we sure miss you.
