Nancy was always my favorite cousin and I loved visiting her family in Flemington N.J. when I was growing up. And as an adult she was always warm and welcoming whenever I went to visit her and her husband Dave. She may have been my cousin, but I loved her like as if she was my sister.

Nancy was my nursing instructor in the mid 90’s. I couldn’t have asked for a better match to teach me not only the technical side of nursing, but the equally important human factor during the trying times of the patient.
Later in life we shared the sometimes humorous side of raising boys!
Wonderful woman ❣️
