Nancy was a selfless woman who was always thinking of others first. She loved with all she had and always saw the good in everyone. She loved to see others succeed and be happy. She conveyed the word of God with all her actions in life. She loved Jesus and her biggest prayer was to see all her family and friends saved so that they would one day be reunited in Heaven with her. 

Everyone who knew Nancy was considered her family and she took care of many people over the years that needed help, as she was known to have a heart of gold. She loved her family, loved playing with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, she enjoyed crocheting and making blankets. She was passionate about gardening, flowers and animals. She loved Christmas and her Christmas village display. Nancy loved her jewelry, especially her rings that would adorn each finger and her diamond earrings that Jack bought special for her. She loved to rock babies to sleep and would usually fall asleep with them. She loved her husband, Jack, and spending time camping with him. Nancy also loved Elvis Presley and gospel music. Nancy has left a void in her family that can never be filled but many memories that they will cherish for a lifetime.
