From those closest to her, she will always be remembered for her genuine laugh, love of makeup, gaudy jewelry, dressing up; Her beautiful handwriting, love of dancing, cracking jokes, and ability to laugh at herself when she made a mistake. Nancy was a free spirit that lead with her heart and always made those around her feel loved.
