Nancy attended Lewis Elementary with some of us who lived in that area of Glenwood Ave and the Brooklyn neighborhood. She lived on Hinsdale street directly across the street from the school.
As some of our stories go,I lost contact with her when we went to Daniels and then on to Broughton. I do remember she was one of a few girls that attended our Boy Scout Troop 330 party at Jenkins Methodist Church, and a few of us had to walk our classmates home which was about 2 blocks away. A trival memory but I remember it well. Funny as I get older, I remember our times growing up better than my current activities. Lol 😂
