I always looked forward to seeing Nancy at the store...she was always so "kolohe"!  Such a radiant smile and personality :)  I recall at least 4 times when Wanda and I would see Nancy and Harry at the Ward Theatre matinees together...we'd always discuss the movie the next time she came into the store AND talk about what new "action" films were up and coming :)    I believe the last one was "Expendables 3".  Always a joy to see them together <3

Hi Debbie,  I'm so sorry for your loss and for your family's as well.  Although I only met your mom once,  I know she was a sweet, beautiful,  and very courageous person.  From the day I met her,  she had given me strength and hope.  She will always be my inspiration and my hero.

Dear Debbie,
Whenever I go to the Pineapple Room, I always think of you and your mom and would hope that I would run into you both.  I am sad to hear of her passing.  I will always remember how we enjoyed talking about our families and what an inspiration she was.  She is truly special.  My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

We are so sorry to hear of Nancy's passing. We hadn't seen her for quite a while, especially since Richard retired. We admired her strength, and will always remember Nancy's sunny, positive disposition, even during some dark times.  Thank-you for sharing the photos. Sayonara, Nancy.

It was a pleasure working with Nancy when she was a carpet representative.  She was such a helpful, professional and positive person, and so generous.  She once shared a whole bag of mangoes with me, knowing how much they would be enjoyed.  I was so sad to learn her bright spirit is no longer with us.  My condolences to Florence, Harry and all her family.  Thank you for sharing the photographs.  A hui hou, Nancy!

You have honored her with the photographs .
Nancy was a classmate from elementary Fern, intermediate Kalakaua, and high school Farrington. 
My sincerest condolences in this time of passing.

Aloha...I went to school with Nancy, lo those many years ago!  Condolences on her passing.  Mahalo for sharing your guest book.
