April 3rd is the birthday of Nancy Carol Sands Sullivan, wife of John; mother of Mike, Maggie and Matt; grandmother of Evangeline and Violet; daughter of Donald and Florence; sister to Sandy; in-law, cousin, aunt and friend to many more.
I remember looking at pictures of Nancy in the Munster High School yearbook when I was very little and swooning over her beautiful long hair and stylish clothes. This was the same woman who would pull up to our house on Belmont with John (I believe she drove a convertible which further enamored me!), and head straight to the youngest of the family to catch up, talk or play. She also brought pizza.
Nancy has always been a kind and gentle person, as well as a gifted artist--with a camera, creating a garden, cooking delish dishes. She can also play several instruments and has a master's degree in music. And those lucky grandbabies now enjoy her loving nature and creative talents!
Today, Nancy is my go-to comrade in all things chocolate. Her Nutella cookies/balls are like crack!

Happy Birthday, Nancy, and may you have 57 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.
God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.
Love, Patty
