Nancy was a lady with a strong will and great love of family. She was not one to stay idle. Ever since she was a kid she had a passion for animals growing up on a dairy in New Jersey. She carried that passion throughout life and shared that with her family. If she wasn’t outside tending to the animals on the farm, she could be found in her kitchen cooking and baking for loved ones. Nancy spent countless hours on the farm tending to livestock, working in the garden and helping the grandchildren with livestock projects. To say she kept busy is an understatement. Nancy loved animals of all kinds and especially her beloved Pugs. Above all else, she loved her family and was extremely proud of each of her loved ones. She was quick to share with those around her how proud she was of each family member.

Nancy leaves behind a host of fond memories that will continue to inspire those who loved her. Her life serves as a testament to the beauty of compassion and the warmth of genuine friendship. She will be deeply missed but lovingly remembered by all who had the honor of sharing in her life.
