Nancy was a beautiful lady inside and out.I miss taking her to the town, Doctors and just hanging out with her for company and talk R.I.H. Nancy Mars
I just heard about Nancy yesterday. I remember her from AB. Such a lovely lady and a talker. I so enjoyed her!
I just now found out about Nancy. Of all my years at AB college, she was the most friendliest person to know. Nancy always took the time to listen to you (didn't matter if you had a bad day). My suite would always invite her to our Christmas parties. I'm sorry I lost track of her over the years and I'll miss her dearly.
I hate to her of Nancy’s passing. I graduated from AB in 1990 and all four years there, Nancy treated us “her boys” like her very own.
She always had something to say and was always in a mood that would make your day a little better. She was funny, caring, and all around a great person. When you take in the entire picture of what made AB such a special place, you can’t overlook how she treated us. She stepped up to the plate and almost became a substitute mother for a lot of guys. And she sure took care of us buys at Southfork.
Rest In Peace Nancy…
