Nancy was a very dear friend for many years. She will not be forgotten. She could find fun and laughter in anything we did ,I will very much miss our dinners out and long talks on the phone. Fly high Nancy! Love you. Shirley
Nancy was a one of a kind lady – a mentor who was always willing to share her knowledge but mostly a true friend for so many. She brought sunshine to gloomy situations, created so much fun & laughter you would smile for days remembering the stories. I will forever treasure the memories of being her cohort in mischief, never forget the advice she gave. I will giggle at the names of “endearment” she gave to many, smile at the silly times she created to ease a hurt. She will be missed by so many but our memories will keep Nancy in our hearts forever.
My thought and prayers are with her family and friends. So sorry for you loss.
Nancy always so full of life. Smiling, laughing. She was a bright light in so many people’s life. She could always make me laugh. I will miss Nancy immensely. A great friend to all.
Nancy was a special kind of person. I remember hearing stories about how much fun she and the other team leads had at the “old Target store”. She was always smiling, laughing, or cutting up with someone. She made work a whole lot more fun….Nancy will be missed …..
I worked with Nancy for several years…one of the nicest people I have ever met. She will be greatly missed.
I have not seen Nancy for a couple of years. Last time was a mini re of couple of Target employees when I was a manager. Although it has been twenty years since working there faces are still in my mind and not once can I remember Nancy not smiling or laughing. You will be missed but your gliwong face will always be remembered in my mind. Rest in peace.
Nancy would call me Kathy SinClair so I started calling her Nancy Brown. She was a great person and fun to work with. I never heard a discouraging word from Nancy. Heaven has gained a true angel.
Nancy was one of my nearest and dearest friends. We shared a lot of great times and I will cherish every moment. She had the greatest laugh and it was very contagious. You will always be in my heart . Prayers to all of her family and friends. Fly high Nancy. Love you.
