Nancy was not only my aunt, she was my dear friend. When we were younger, I always looked up to her and wanted “to be like her”. She was only 10 years older and during my week long visits with Grandma and Grandpa, she and I shared a bedroom and I hung on to every word my older and very cool aunt uttered. As adults we continued to “hang out” and she and her family would come to visit us in St. Louis for what are some of our fondest memories. We are grieving for Peggy and Pat and their families as they miss their mom and grandma and pray that the Lord will comfort you as only He is able. We love you all VERY MUCH. Anne
