I have seen but never met Nancy. All I know of her is the positive remarks of those who have known and loved her for many years as friend and organist at College Church. I pray God's special blessing on Dal and the family at this painful time. I trust all will recognize His touch at some painful moments and times He sends laughter your way.

I'm so sorry for your loss Pastor Dal. You and Nancy meant a great deal to me in the 70s at Central Nazarene. You both helped me through many difficult teenage circumstances.
I pray God comforts you and your family during this time.

My sincerest condolences to the Elder family. As a former student of Nancy and growing up near the family I was saddened to hear of her loss. Many thoughts and blessings go out to the family.

Dal and Family, Nancy will forever be remembered, she was so kind, loving and inspiring growing up as a teen at Central Nazarene. The good memories will never pass. I am VERY thankful to have had Nancy and you Dal as youth leaders and you both were there when I first accepted Jesus into my heart! I look forward to see Nancy again in our forever home. God bless you all.

With Love,
Gordon Scott

Dallas, Melanie and Mark, Brenda and Mason, and all the family, we have been privileged to know Nancy all these years. She and Dave were often prepping for the worship service at the same time and found a way to comfortably and humorously "get in each other's way." This talented and lovely lady will be missed.

Your mother and I had weekly ritual as she was rehearsing before the Sunday morning service. She would ask how my Oregon Ducks were doing after reporting another Broncos victory. It was more fun for her than me the two years in a row Boise St won!
Nancy Elder is on my short list of people who had a significant impact on my ministry experience and for whom have much respect. Blessings on Dallas and family at her time of passing.

To Dal and family, I met you through Jim Poteet and wish to pray God's riches comfort and blessings on all of you for your loss of Nancy. Since I graduated from NNU in 1961 and my wife in 1963 I do believe that we may have made contact with Nancy during those years. I am certain that she has played in "Messiah" performances many times the part that says "Comfort ye my people" and I do pray that you will be comforted.
