The last time I saw you, you and your Mom were having such a good time shopping at The Salvation Army. Your Mom was so fortunate to have such a kind, caring daughter. It's wonderful that you could enjoy life with your Mom for so many years. Please extend my condolences to your family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this most difficult time. Kind Regards, Mary Spiess Dear Nancy, I know that this is very late, but my daughter was just reading online (from the Cortland Standard) about people who had passed away and I remembered your Mom's name. What a beautiful photo of her. You look very much like her. I'm very sorry for your loss. Please pass my condolences to Shirley. (I remember her from the Glen Haven) Please email me - I would enjoy hearing about what's happening in your life and how the "kids" and grandkids are doing. My Mom will be 93 this September - hard to believe. Again, I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mom. Barbara Miller (Hilsinger) Eggleston Nancy, I was just reading obituaries on the Wright-Beard site after finding out about another death and came across your mothers name. I am so sorry for your loss. I always thought your mother was a very beautiful lady, both in appearance and in heart Nina Bean Dickinson
