Nancy was my mother in law and she will always be so special to me. I remember when Tara and I first started dating she made me feel so welcome when I came over and was so easy to talk to. I remember going over to the house for Sunday dinners. I looked so forward to eating all of her good cooking. She was always there to help and listen no matter what was going on. I remember us all going bowling and how we used to compete with each other and laugh. I can also recall all the times she called the house wanting to talk to Tara but never letting me get off the phone without telling me she loved me. I'll never forget that. Nancy I want you to know that I loved you and Roger so much and I'll never forget you. Thank you for being such a great mother in law. I love you, your son in law always, Jason.

I can't express the deep, empty feeling of loss I feel after losing my Mother, my best friend. Her life on this earth was cut too short, but our heavenly Father above had a reason for mom to join my dad in heaven. Mom was a cut above the rest, she always gave 100% in whatever she did. She was the most special mother a daughter could have. I don't regret one moment of taking care of you, Mom, you have given me everlasting memories I will forever cherish with me always. You never gave up hope, always courageous in your fight against cancer. Thanks for giving me life, loving me for who I am, listening to my problems,always there for me in times of need. I don't know how to move on now without you, I want to just lay my head on your chest, amd you tell me everything is going to be alright. You will always be in my heart and I look forward to seeing you and daddy in heaven one day. Carly and Christopher will never forget your unbridled spirit, the "Greatest NANNY in the world." I love you Mom.

My dear sweet, beautiful sister Nancy. I will miss her so much. She fought so hard to live so she could be with her loved ones. I know God has a plan for her, a special plan because she was a very special person. I always admired her and looked up to her and wished that I was just like her. She was a very loving, devoted Mother, Wife and Daughter. She was always so happy, energetic and full of life. Everyone will love and miss her very much. Goodbye Nancy, you're now with your loving and very devoted husband Roger who you missed so very much. I hope to be with you one day in heaven. The other angels will absolutely adore you. Mother and Dad will be so glad to see you. Love you always, Brenda.

Nancy was a fine sister-in-law and a wonderful addition to the Haney family. I am so happy that she was my brother`s wife. She was a great cook and I could never get away from her house without her making me eat something or at least having coffee. She had great sense of humor and always seemed to be in a good mood. I will certainly miss her.

To my wonderful mother, I will never forget you. You were the best mother that a daughter could have. I thank God for having you for 28 years. You gave me life and taught me so many things. Even though I am so lost and hurt without you I have comfort in knowing that you aren't suffering any longer and you are with Daddy again. I will meet you in Heaven one day and we will be together again. Thank you for teaching me how to be a mother to Landen. I will never forget everything you have taught me with how to be a mother, how to cook and how to see the good in people no matter what. Me, Kim and Angie have been so lucky to have you in our lives. You fought a long and courageous battle and you are an inspiration to all that have known you. I love you with all of my heart Mom and miss you so very much. Landen misses his Nan-Nan so much and I will make sure he always knows how much you loved him and how he gave you strength throughout your battle.

Nancy was my kind, beautiful sister-in-law who always felt like a sister to me. She was simply "the best". Love one another, be good to one another, live life to the fullest as she did and laugh often - that would be her wish for all of us - and let us all be prepared to meet her & my brother in heaven where they are now joined together forever.

Bobbie and I would like to express our condolence to the family & friends of Nancy. She had to have had a full life in her 60 years. Having known her mother and dad she learn to live life by working & doing. Life is measured by how full we live not how long. God comfort you and remember all of the great times you shared with her.

Nancy's my wonderful strong sister. She's held up and stayed positive for all of us. She's taught me so much thru life but most of all how to trust in our Lord. I miss her so much and I don't know how we're going to go on without her. My life will never be the same without my Sis.

NANCY WAS A WONDERFUL CO-WORKER AND DEAR FRIEND. WE NICK NAMED HER THE "KITCHEN CLOWN" BECAUSE SHE WAS ALWAYS MAKING US LAUGH. WE THINK OF HER EVERY DAY AND MISS HER SO MUCH. WE PRAY FOR HER FAMILY IN THEIR LOSS. NANCY WILL LIVE ON FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS. SHE IS AT PEACE NOW AND WITH HER DEPARTED LOVED ONES. WE DO NOT KNOW WHY THINGS HAPPEN THE WAY THEY DO, BUT THERE IS A REASON AND ONE DAY WE WILL KNOW THE ANSWER. NANCY WAS STRONG AND ALWAYS KNEW THE RIGHT THING TO SAY TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER. SHE WAS WONDERFUL AND I LOVED HER VERY MUCH. WE ARE ALSO BROKEN HEARTED IN HER PASSING. HER FAMILY WAS ALWAYS FIRST AND SHE LOVED THEM ALL SO MUCH AND BRAGGED ON HER GRANDCHILDREN ALL THE TIME.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL,
LINDA
