We are so sorry to hear this sad news. Nancy was a beautiful person and I will certainly miss seeing and talking with her. Prayers for comfort and peace for all the family.
Jessica and Judd, I wish I could be there with you during this time. I can’t even express how sorry I am for your loss. Every time I see blue and white china or a Carolina blue Cadillac, I think of your momma. I can just hear plain as day her calling to you from the kitchen of your old West Haven house to y’all’s bedrooms…Juuuuuudd! Jessicaaaaa! So many memories, all of them reflective of what a selfless, sweet soul your Mom was…and of course your Dad too. I feel beyond lucky to have grown up around you and your parents. You all mean the world to my family. We are here for you, and we love you.
