    The. last time we saw Nancy was at our Mother's Celebration of Life at South Hills Country Club in January, 2010. We were happy she came as we were next-door neighbors on Nuzum Street until our parents passed away. You have our deepest sympathy in the loss of your sister. The Benz and Seemiller Families

    We lived across the street on Nuzum for a short time and always enjoyed her beautifully maintained yard. She was a nice neighbor to have. Rose and Rose (daughter) Weber

    I worked with Nancy at the Press and Post-Gazette for twenty years and she was my secretary for about half that time. "Nance" was the ultimate professional, hard-working and exact in everything she did. She was a special person who cared always about doing everything the right way. I have missed her since her retirement and i will miss her even more now with her passing. All of her family members have my deepest sympathy and condolonces.. Randy Waugaman
