Add My Condolences

Laughing and Ease was Nancy's specialness. Walking to school every day with Nancy, in our Junior High School years, was a great way to start any day, throughout life, with laughter! The ease made us usually late, so, we made up funny excuse stories to tell our mutual (we both were T's) Homeroom teacher. The teacher didn't always laugh. My condolences to Nancy's loved ones.

Nancy was a very special lady. She and Lenny recreated Don-Len and West Art to very successful companies. Both became such good friends. She is truly missed.
