TO MY BEAUTIFUL, LITTLE SISTER NANCY:
My heart breaks as I write this. It’s true that God wants only the best with him, but it hurts us still left down here.
I love you like my little sister and remember all the wonderful times we had growing up. You spent so much time at our house that your mom would call over and ask if “Nancy Higgins” was there. Yes, you were a Higgins, and still are. Just as Jim was a Higgins.
I will remember many wonderful things. Your laughter. You were always one to laugh and smile. So kind hearted, gentle and smart. These are the things I will remember most about you. I will also take with me that none of us are guaranteed a certain amount of time on earth and to make the most of it.
I have been putting off horse camping for years. Not now. I have a horse trailer and have joined a saddle club. We have reservations to camp at least four times this summer. My saddle club is hosting the Pink Ribbon Ride in October to benefit a breast cancer recovery group from Madison. You were to be my honored guest at this event. With a heavy heart, I will ride in your memory.
I will love you forever my little sister. God Speed.

Brad and family, Nancy will always be remebered as one of the most genuine and kind hearted people I have ever had the privelage of knowing. The words are hard to assemble that would accurately define all of her talents and qualities. She was always a freind first, and co-worker last. Nancy will missed, and yet stay with us through all through the fond memories she left for us. We we express our deepest sympathy and offer condollences to all of Nancy's family and freinds. Heaven has just received a new angel named Nancy.
.In Deepest Sympathy,
Ray and Trish Daino
