My sister and I are so sorry to hear about the passing of Nancy. We are the daughters of Marty, who Nancy befriended while my mom was at Cedar Gardens. She was such a bright spot for us to see when we visited my mom and when we moved my mom, one of the hardest things was leaving Nancy behind. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
