I have always admired my Aunt Nancy.  I remember her gentle ways, so poised and so polite.  She impressed me.  She inspired me, and I felt so blessed.  I watched her as a wife, mother, sister, aunt and grandmother with such love and affection, and in the years gone by, she shared that love with my family.  She was always there for us.  God bless you Aunt Nancy for being the gentle, poised and polite angel you were and always will be.

Always, Love Lucille, Ron, Karen and Little Ronnie

I can't think about Aunt Nancy without thinking about all of the sisters. Growing up, my brother Jason and I looked at them almost like mythical beings--all originals, unique in personality. This, in a world that lacks originality. 

There was my "Gram;" never call her Grandma Margie. I liked to call her "The Warden" and God knows my brother and I needed to be watched. She also made being quirky an ok thing, despite what people think of you. Aunt Lana was from another planet and taught me a lesson about not being selfish by dumping ice cream on my head because "If you won't share it, wear it". She also gave me my first film camera and taught me anything was possible. Auntie Anne taught me to sit in the dark, allow for contemplation and deep thought. This process made me realize my disdain for the film "The Sound of Music". Aunt Connie "Chevy" reminded me of "Maude's Bea Arthur" - tough and funny. Watching her squirm out of situation she created was priceless. Aunt Addie could smoke and eat at the same time. She had a wicked laugh that let you know she knew what was going on and could lighten a mood. 

Finally, Aunt Nancy - a warm, sweet smile. She could also give you a look that saw through your "BS". She also baked my favorite Christmas cookie. Every Christmas we would get a little tin and ration them out. While that might seem like a small gesture, it was a genuine act of kindness. Those cookies must have been a nightmare to make every year but, she did it because it made people happy. I will see her everyday through my two amazing cousins. All the sisters taught me how to be a man. This amazing collection of women taught me what family means. All the sisters are reunited again in Heaven. Heaven help Heaven. I learned from you all. I miss you all. I love you all.

Your nephew, Julio

Sweet, kind, gentle Nancy will remain in our hearts and prayers forever. She will be missed.

Aunt Nancy to me was sweet, kind, and genuine. I loved her with all my heart. She wasn't just my aunt. Growing up she made me feel like I was one of the sisters. We had fun. Memories I will always carry in my heart forever. My heart and memory will always have a place with my Aunt Nancy in it. I love you.
