I met Nancy this past October while participating in a research exercise program for cancer patients. She could out-walk everyone in our group! Her strength, enthusiasm and energy were an inspiration to all of us! She lived her life as a testimony to her faith. Her courage and strength have been an example to all of us of how to live life to the fullest. I will miss her very much, but I am comforted to know that she is no longer in pain. My sincere sympathy to your family for this great loss. Anne King, Charleston, South Carolina

Mr. and Mrs. Nazer and family…

My deepest sympathy on your loss. I work at the Medical University and knew Nancy for many years. She was a truly amazing person who always saw the good in everything and everyone. She had the most positive attitude I’ve ever seen and was truly an inspiration to all around her. I know the pain is strong right now but take comfort in knowing she’s at peace. She is missed by all those that knew her very much. God bless you and help you through the pain of your loss.

It is so difficult to lose someone as wonderful as Nancy. I hope that the great memories of times with her help the Nazers and Nancy's friends deal with her passing.

We all know the things that she would say and do for us if she was here still.

To Nance's Famiy.
The lost of our neighbor will be missed greatly. She was a very strong and brave person who loved life and did everything in her power to beat her illness. Gracie her companion was everything to her. I will miss the doggie walks we took in the afternoons and the saying Nance and I had, "Lets set some cement". She was a great friend and neighbor, and will be missed by everyone here on Morning Glory Court.
