Nancy was always a doer and a giver. I found a picture of our soriety at Wayne State Univerity. Also, we kept in touch until two days before she passed away. Nancy certainly was 10**** ,

Nancy and Stu and I all arrived in Tempe in 1970. That year, if memory serves, we ran into one another walking our babies (hers were twins). We remained somewhat friendly and even jointly arranged (together with Audrey Feldman) a Phoenix-area Mumford 61 mini-reunion, probably in 2001. Nancy was a class act, and will be missed. Heartfelt condolences to Stuart.
