It is with tearful sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Nancy Carr, a dear friend and a member of FixNation’s Board of Directors. At the youthful age of 50, Nancy died on February 18, 2011, from complications arising from a long bout with brain cancer.
During her tenure as a board member, Nancy was always energetic in her support of the organization, contributing many excellent recommendations in the public relations area and introducing us to helpful resources. She took her role in this regard seriously, totally in keeping with her character, and met often with us to discuss FixNation matters. Above all, Nancy was no “lightweight.” A very successful executive in a challenging industry, she was always one to think before speaking, and in all of our encounters with her we always learned something and came away feeling we had gained value.
