  17. Dearest Ricky and family, I am saddened to hear of Nancy’s passing. I got to know and love her when working with Mtn. Mobility. We shared a love of geneology and kin. Myleigh was the apple of her eye. My prayers are with you all.

    We are so sorry for your loss. I have 2 special memories of Nancy. First, she is the reason I vote. She signed me up in the grocery store. Second, is the beautiful gold chain necklace she bought for Ricky to give to Julie on one of her birthdays. She was a special lady, and will be missed.
