A loving mother and doting grandmother, Nancy greatly enjoyed many cherished memories with her family.

In her early years, she was employed at Lumberman’s Insurance Company. She was a Weight Watchers staff member in Ontario, and also worked the polls for the Board of Elections. She was a member of the TYTO and Priscillians group. She had a love for cake decorating, and enjoyed sharing her talent with family and friends. Nancy and Robert loved traveling with the TYTQ group, “Too Young To Quit”, and were able to visit many different places. She had a collection of bells, dolls and miniature tea sets.
