    So sad to hear about Mrs Nancy. She was a wonderful person with a great big heart & smile. She taught my son Andrew in Sunday School @ PVCOG. Andrew always loved to go to her class. She always had a sweet spirit. My thoughts & prayers are with your family @ this time. May you find peace & comfort knowing she is rejoicing & happy with no more pain in the presence of Almighty God. Love for you all.
