To Denise, Michelle, David and families
Sincere sympathy. Nancy had a heart of gold and LOVED her family. May each of you experience God’s peace and comfort. Her pain is over.

My heart is full of so much sadness. I enjoyed Nancys company so much. She had the biggest heart. She talked about her family often. She was more than just a client to me, she was a friend. I’m going to miss her bright smiling face so much. To Nancy’s family, you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Nancy’s family, Heartfelt condolences on your Mom’s passing. Nancy was a caring, kind, friendly woman. We met her when we attended Emmanuel Baptist Church, Exeter. Cherish your wonderful memories. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this most difficult time.

Hi my beautiful and loving “Mommy” otherwise known or referred to you Mom as “MOTHER HUBBARD” and “FANCY NANCY” I’ve listened to your clear crisp energetic and alive voice on your voicemail several times over the last few days and now I have a permanent “voice copy “ of you alive and well forever on my phone to listen to.

Mom if it wasn’t for your endless unconditional never ending love for me and I believe for all your kids amidst our family turmoil I don’t believe we would have survived and ended up so healthy and loving of others as you were such an amazing example of Christ’s sacrificial Love. Buddy and I missed you so much at Christmas as your bed was ready and lots of amazing food and you had your bags already packed to visit when I picked you up. You wanted to go Home to be with Jesus sooner in life as you always said to me so now your life is complete here on earth.

I know Mom that you are now resting in heavenly peace with Jesus Christ and Our Heavenly Father who you loved more than anything and anybody. He kept you until it was time for you to go “HOME” with Him to Heaven. I will see you in Heaven sooner than later Mommy as life is but a fleeting rain drop. Eternity is forever and forever always I will love you

Your loving son, “Cupboard”
Your “Baby”
Your “Beloved”

My sincere condolences to all of Nancy’s family. I was saddened to hear that your mom had passed away so suddenly. We had just had a wonderful visit over the phone two weeks ago. I got to know Nancy when she attended Emmanuel Baptist Church. We did childcare and worked in the kitchen together when needed. Nancy will be missed. Cherish all the memories you made with your mom. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

To the family of Nancy: We were saddened to learn of the passing of your dear mom. We knew her through her connection to Emmanuel Baptist Church. Her love for others, especially children was very evident. We know that now she is rejoicing with her Savior. May the Lord be your comfort and strength in the days ahead.

I was saddened to hear of Nancy’s passing. We recently spoke and as usual ended our call with a prayer for our families. May knowing her love for the Lord and you her dear family bring you comfort and peace as you gather to share family memories.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones in this time of great loss.

‘Grandma’ Nancy will be deeply missed by our family. We cherish the precious moments we shared with her and Dave at our home in London, or at our cottage in Lambton shores. We saw a loving, caring woman that was marked by life, but let her trust in Jesus have the upper hand. In her presence there was always positivity and laughter.

We know Nancy is in a better place now. Her saviour Jesus conquered death and she is with Him now. In knowing that comforting fact we will cherish ‘Grandma’ Nancy in our memories.

God bless,

Jasper van den Berg, Suzanne Flier, Filemon, Arthur and Boudewijn

I am so sorry to hear of Nancy’s passing, I spoke to her almost weekly as she would visit me at my office in town, or just simply call to chat, she was such a special woman and I am so grateful I got the pleasure of getting to know her over the past several years. She will be missed greatly by many. So sorry for you loss.

We were saddened to hear of your Moms passing. We have many fond memories when we were neighbors . Thinking of you all.

Nancy was a long time friend of ours. We owned the cottage beside her for a number of years. On top of that she was a major supporter of all of our music performances and she was at our “gigs” as often as she could be – sometimes with a friend, sometimes just on her own. We had a nice visit with her earlier in the year and will always remember that. She loved her church and the connections there, which always gave her strength, especially when she was lonely. Condolences to all the family.

Sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. She was always easy to talk to and very welcoming. I appreciated being part of a women’s bible study with her a few years ago. Our deepest sympathy to you Denise and Andrew.
Sincerely, Daryl and Pam Little

Michelle, Denise, David and Trent,

I am so sorry to learn about the loss of your Mom. I have many fond memories of her from the countless hours I spent at your house when we were kids. I’m thinking of all of you at this difficult time.

Margie

Denise, Michelle, Trent, David and families,

I just heard of Nancy’s passing and wanted to reach out and extend my deepest sympathies.

I have fond memories of life on the 14th. A more caring and thoughtful neighbour I could not have asked for. AVON was always calling.

For years after she moved we rented the barn to raise our bull calves. Up to last summer when the barn came down, it was always the Benson barn.

Sending much love.

Nancy Benson was a true friend when I needed her. We prayed together on occasion and I know how much your son David loves you and misses you Nancy. For the time she was in Josh’s life, she took every opportunity to call, help, and spend time with him. She loved that I named Josh a Bible name. I’m sure we will all see you’re beautiful caring face in heaven again Nancy, until then, God Bless.

Henry and I are so sorry for your loss.
