I always looked forward to exchanging stories of our kitties in the morning at work - and Nanci telling me of the antics her kitty Lucy was up to :)
Gone too soon, this loss has left a hole in my heart and she will surely be missed. The angels are in good company with a lovely lady, and a shining star. My condolences go out to her husband Steve, her daughter Lauren... And all her family. God Bless.
Lauren, Steve, and Jim,
I am beyond saddened by the news of last week. Nance was such a warm and loving person. I will never forget the first time she opened her house up to me on a trip home from college--still one of the best meals I ever had! For years after, she continued to be a true friend--always checking in and making sure my family and I were doing well. I am heartbroken that her time on earth has been shortened, but wonder not why God would have called her home so soon. The world is better for having her, and I am better for knowing her.

I am so sorry for your loss. Nanci was just a terrific lady. I would speak to her everyday and we would swap family stories' she loved you guys dearly. Nanci was instrumental in OEM Connect's success. I never met a more dedicate, hard-working person in my career. She was so smart and had no issues telling me when I was wrong that's for sure. I will miss her greatly and my days will certainly not be the same without her smiling face and wonderful laugh around this office. Again, my sincerest condolences.

I am so sorry and shocked to hear about Nanci. We were friends from our Andover High School and young adults years. We spent a lot of time with each other's parents, and Thomas and Jeanne were always so very nice to me. Nanci and I decided to take cooking classes together at the Greater Lawrence Regional Vo-Tech School adult education program - so we could learn the basics. We made some nice friendships, and a group of us would often go out for drinks and dancing after. After she and Steven married, I enjoyed visiting them at their Nashua, NH apartment. The last time I saw her and Steven was at a patriotic concert at Merrimack College about 30 years ago, and enjoyed seeing each other. Nanci was a vibrant, beautiful woman, and always so much fun to be with, and she will be greatly missed.
My sincere sympathy to Steven and family.

Nanci was my cousin. I have many fond memories of family gatherings , playing at our Gram & Grandpa’s house & visiting each other’s homes. She was more than just a cousin, she was like a sister & served as a bridesmaid in my wedding.
As we got older, we got together for cousin nights & occasionally included the spouses.
One of my fondest memories was when she & Steve joined our rowdy bus trip to Foxwoods. We laughed all night.
Her death came as such a shock. We had so many more post Covid plans.
My thoughts & prayers to Steve, Lauren & James. Heaven has gained a sweet, kind, beautiful angel.

Nanci was my mom's cousin, and in recent years I only got to see her once at a family wedding and then on Facebook. I remember being at the family wedding, sitting with my mom, Nanci, and other cousins, and feeling the kindness and beautiful spirit that Nanci brought to the group. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will always remember all the special times we shared at Mount Carmel. Love, The Monroe family
Lauren and family.....I was so sorry to read about your mother’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Miss Lumb
