I have many memories of Nancy, she was always the first to pop out from behind the dividers at the office to see how everyone was doing. She would keep us on our toes and wasn’t afraid to say what needed to be said to her son..haha We may have had to climb on desks to open windows for her, pulled her car out of the snow, and being told my chicken wasn’t cooked enough, but I do have to say, she was such a beautiful person inside and out. Even some of the last visits at Birchwood, she still always asked how my kids were doing and did the “ooooo”. I still can hear her voice. These are all wonderful memories of Nancy, and I was privileged to be a part of them!
Love, Jill
