Nancy was an adventurer, hiking the West Coast Trail, Cape Scott and Scottish Highlands. She paddled the Bowron Lakes with brother Bob, paddled outriggers in Gibsons and Maui, played softball in North Vancouver in her seventies. She ran many of Terry Fox runs, Sun Runs, Vancouver Marathons and 24 hr relays. She also went into the local polar bear plunges on New Year’s Day; she even attempted to swim from Gibsons to Keats Island on a windy day, with Dave in a boat by her side.

She also enjoyed music and taught guitar on Vancouver Island. Nancy belonged to Al-Anon family groups in North Vancouver and Gibsons where many friendships were made.
