Nancy had a keen mind and a quick wit. She loved the music of West Virginia, beautiful flowers and watching all the birds that played on her deck.
After years of physical trials she was ready to go home to her Savior. She will be missed by all who were part of her life, but most especially by her children who dearly love and revere their mother.
