    Nancy was such a bright light a Dunklau Gardens. It was a true pleasure to take care of such a wonderful lady for the whole time she was there. She was always in a positive mood even when she had "bad" days. I loved visiting to her about her life. We shared many of stories over the years She was my friend and I will miss her dearly.

    Marv & family,
    Thank you for sharing her with us for 15 years. I always turn to these words when a loved one passes:

    "Say not in grief that she is no more but say in thankfulness that she was . A death is not the extinguishing of a light, but the putting out of the lamp because the dawn has come"
