Nancy sang in the choir and often would provide solos for weekly services. She made a wholehearted commitment to her Savior, Jesus Christ, in 1974 and never wavered in her commitment to follow, share and live out her faith up to her passing.
Nancy enjoyed expressing her faith through writing poetry. She would often send birthday and special event cards with a personal poem for the recipient.
