Nancy enjoyed working in her flower business, Floral's by Nancy, spending time with family and friends, doing things to help others, and making people laugh with her contagious laugh. There are not enough words to describe what a wonderful lady Nancy was. She had a heart of gold, giving selflessly to others and never asking or expecting anything in return.
