I am so sorry for your loss. I played Bridge with Nancy several times and replaced her as a partner in the group when she no longer could play. I know the pain you are going through. I cannot make the services as it is just too soon for me after Frank’s passing only a week ago. Please accept my sympathy. You and the family are in my prayers. Marcella Kempker and Family
