Oh miss nancy!!! I just cannot believe that you are gone. My heart is so broken 💔 you don't even realize how you protected so many kids for so many years if even from 7pm to 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Those hours were my escape! I always knew I was safe at the rink. As an adult you gave that back to me by supporting the roller derby team and giving us a home! I'm gonna miss all the smiles and words of encouragement you always gave me every time I saw you! My prayers are with your family at this time, I know this was sudden and shocking for them.
It is sad to see your name and picture in the obituaries. I like your sign for the skating rink, 40 years and still rolling. You have a special place in lots of kids and adults lives,with such skating games as the corner game, limbo and hokey pokey.
I am so sorry for ya"ll loss Prayers for the family and freinds and who she worked with Lord be with ya"ll.
Rest In Peace Mrs. Newnam You will be missed by many.
Love Ursula
She was a good friend. I will miss her. My condolences to Bill and the huge family she built over the years.
Kelly and Kevin. I am so sorry you lost your Mom. I was one of the first people to meet her when she came to Poteau and we became friends. I have the best memories of her and I skating while you kids were at school.My heart breaks for you and your families. I am so sorry I won't be able to attend her funeral. I am living in Fort Smith and am in bad health. I will be there in spirit.I love you all and you are in my prayers.
