Nancy was one of the sweetest ladies I knew; whenever I was at the Methodist (in Mt. Sterling) she'd always be smiling and talking to someone. It was thanks to Nancy and Pastor Bob that my old youth group from Mt. Sterling were able to travel three separate times on a mission trip to North Carolina. Those mission trips were one of the highlights of my life and served to set me on the narrow path. Thanks for everything you

We are so sorry to hear about Nancy. She was such wonderful women. I have many great memories of her. She always helped me with the Annual Soup Supper by making the oyster soup. We also had lots of fun teaching the children of the church about the bible during our JAM sessions. Jesus has gained a wonderful angel. Much love to you all. You are in our thought and prayers.

My family has such fond memories of Nancy. I can remember Nancy & you(Paster Bob) sitting in our church basement talking to Chelsea & Hanna. Nancy just loved talking to the kids. She is now an angel looking down at those same children, smiling. She is in the hands of our Lord.
Our thoughts & prayers,
Steve, Tammy, Nick, Chelsea & Hanna Still

Dear Bob and family Just a note to let you all know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. It was a pleasure to bump in with you both in Jacksonville and to catch up on your family and see the sparkle in Nancy's eyes as she talked about her grandchildren. Such a testimony to see your hearts and spirit continued to be faithful to your calling. Nancy was so friendly and bubbly with a fire in her heart
