Nancy bubbled into my family daycare about 20 years ago to help do therapy with one of my little kiddos. When the child graduated out of the therapy program, Nancy and I continued to be in touch and meet for dinner every so often. She always had a smile on her face and music in her voice. I am so grateful she crossed my path in life. She was a true gem. As many will Im sure, I will carry her smile with me always.

Even though Nancy was just my Mary Kay consultant for 40 years, she was a wonderful friend during those times we interacted. She was a woman of tremendous energy and deep faith. She and I shared our faith in Jesus. We prayed for each other. My Church prayer chain has been praying for her during this time of suffering and we continue to pray for all of you as you mourn her loss from this world. She will be greatly missed. Let us live life as she did so that one day we may join her in heaven.
