I am very grateful to be a part of this wonderful family. My Wife, Faith Lynn Thompson Wallin, is Terry’s cousin. Faith and Terry are pretty close, so I really got to learn about, and appreciate this wonderful family. I got to interact with Nancy and learned to appreciate her work ethic, tenacity, and love of her wonderful family. Thank you for letting me be a part of this great family!

I attended WSU with Nancy where we both obtained our Master’s in Nursing degrees. We both landed at COMCARE to work with persons with mental illnesses. I always enjoyed working with Nancy. The two of us would often work weekends together at the inpatient hospital (Good Shepherd). Such a beautiful person…inside & out. Tiny but mighty. Rest in paradise, Dear One. Such a good servant. Your work on earth is done.
