They raised three amazing sons of which she was very proud: Jonathan (Marisa) Zarracina, Dustin (Summer) Zarracina and Ryan Zarracina.

Dear Michael, Jonathan, Dustin, and Ryan,
I am so, so sorry to hear about the sudden loss of Nancy – your beloved wife and mother. I was not a close friend of hers, however, did meet her on occasion as my girls Nina, Christina and Angela Pisano went to the same schools as the boys. Then a few times I was asked to be a substitute for her Bunco group. In fact, I remember enjoying chatting with her at Pat Adams house this past year. What a lovely lady inside and out with such a huge heart and radiant smile.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
My sincere condolences,
Denise Dorin

Initially, Nancy was my friend from work but she became my wife’s best friend. Together they became young mothers and helped each other along that blessed road. They learned, taught and grew and were inseparable. Our families became so intertwined – too numerous to count the visits, parties, dart nights, casinos, taco Tuesdays and outings we shared. I will remember her passions for/of baking (cupcakes, brownies, fudge and no-bakes), jewelry, gemology, her house, gaming, horses (betting), Mike, her boys and those grandkids. Her eyes just twinkled at the thought and sight of them. But most of all, I will remember all those looks, smiles, glares, laughs that a 42 year friendship yields. She is loved and missed but will never be forgotten. Love you girl!!
