Dear Kathy and Bob, I am Joan Moore Wright who went to college with Nancy. We had lost touch, but I have fond very old memories of sharing college life with Nancy and Bill. I am from Culpeper, and visited them when they lived there, also. We had lost touch, but I last saw her at my husband's funeral in Richmond in 2014. I just happened to see her obit. I was at your father's funeral. Reach out to me if you see this. I would love to hear what Kathy and Bob are doing, and my prayers are with you in your loss.
