She had dozens of books everywhere, mostly fiction and always had one she was working on when she was able. Nancy was an entertainment trivia expert. She knew just about anything you could ask her about entertainment business. She liked to watch a lot of television with some of her favorite shows being reruns of Friends, Monk and a few others. Nancy also loved and missed working. She worked in the lab at Hillcrest Hospital and had a big part of bringing humor to the work place. She always came in early so she could read the paper. Nancy also enjoyed the cats we’ve had over the years. (Usually two at a time). Her favorites were Melany and Cocoa, who are with us today.
