I am so sorry to hear about your mother’s passing. Please know that your entire family will remain in my prayers.
I was so saddened to hear of Nancy’s death. I worked with her at A-B Emblem for a couple of years and moved out to Fairview during that time, so Nancy & I would sometimes carpool together. I will always have fond memories of her.
She is in a far better place now; please find comfort in knowing that.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
