Much thoughts and love to the family at this time. It was a lovely service and I was very proud of the words that her grandson and my son in law Philip McGee spoke at Nancys service. She was a beautiful woman and has a wonderful family thru her children grandchildren all the way down to her grandson Philip-his wife and my daughter Kim and to her beautiful greatgranddaughter Bella McGee. In my thoughts. Buz Kuzan
