Nancy was a dedicated and nurturing mother who enjoyed spending summers with her family in Osterville and West Dennis on Cape Cod. She was an avid golfer, a sought-after bridge player, and a terrific singer who, with her family, would sing songs full of harmony around the table in beautiful voices for hours. After moving from NH to Cape Cod, Nancy worked as a home health aide for an elderly couple and volunteered at the Yarmouth Town Hall. She was a master of the daily crossword puzzle and Jumble, and a champion of every kind of word and table game. Friends and family meant everything to Nancy and she loved a good reason to laugh. Nancy had so many wonderful years and gave us all something to smile about. We will miss her so much.
Family and friends are invited to attend a funeral Mass on July 22, 2017 at 10:am at Saint. Pius X Church, Station Ave., South Yarmouth, MA.
