To the family of Ms. Sewell, I would like to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. No doubt, many will feel the loss of such a dear loved one. Please take comfort in the fact that sickness and death will soon be things of the past as promised at Isaiah 25:8.

This news saddens me to know end. Nancy was a regular for many years at the Driftaway Café in Sandfly,GA. I was her family's server for many years. She was a loving mother and a great person! We shared many laughs and sadly many tears in the last few years. I have not seen her in awhile...Thank you to Clay for calling me today 12-13-13 to let me know and say thanks for a little note I wrote her one day for encouragement. I wish she would have called. My heart goes to all of her family and friends. She will be deeply missed. Love Michelle Calver

Nancy Hester was one of the first girls I met at Georgia Southern. We became Phi Mu sisters and good friends. During the past three or four years we grew even closer. Nancy was a true 'ever lasting friend'. No matter how long it might have been between seeing each other, a converation with Nancy was always as if we had just parted the day before. I was able to visit with her in Savannah in early March. She was excited about moving to her new home and she was looking forward to the next chapter in her life. Knowing the book is now closed makes me so very sad - especially for her sons, Clay and Wesley. We'll remember Nancy as that beautiful and my gosh, but she was so incredibly beautifuldark-haired girl with the flashing brown eyes. She was smart, witty and hardworking. Never has there lived a woman more devoted to her loved ones. Her family was the most important thing in the world to her. She will be in our hearts forever.

Our heartfelt condolences are extended to all of Nancy's family...especially to her two sons, Clay and Wesley, whom she adored and loved so very much. Hold tight to memories of happy times that you shared with your mother and know that God will sustain you and give you strength and courage to navigate the difficult days ahead. Please know that we hold you close in thought and prayer. With deepest sympathy, Cindy and John Howard

Nancy extended her friendship and support to those of us who worked at the Coastal Georgia Center as staff members of the Ossabaw Island Foundation. We appreciated her lively interest in the Georgia coast and in the organizations who work to preserve it.

I am so saddened to hear of Nancy's death. I extend my deepest sympathy to sons, Wesley and Clay, and to Tricia, Susan, and Van. Nancy and I were very close friends during our young years at Wilder. We spent a great deal of time together....MYF at Wesley Monumental, Wesley Gardens, going to the beach. I was able to meet some very special people through her. She and her family will always have a special place in my heart. Thinking and sending prayers to you all. Lots of Love, Susan Jackson Kaiser

Back in 4th grade at Charles Ellis Elementary in 1986, I was introduced to the 4-H program. My first agent was Ms Hester. She was such a great and positive lady and was always supportive of me in all the ideas that I had for whatever 4-H brought me and in whatever I did. I will always be indebted to what she gave to me through what she did. She had a love for it and I still use what she and the program taught me to this day. In fact, I have now given back some of my time by helping out a 4-H program at a school in the Atlanta area. She passed way too early, but I know that she is looking down on me and is proud of one of her 'products.' Thoughts and prayers go out to the family. To end....let me type the the 4-H pledge: I pledge my HEAD to clearer thinking My HEART to greater loyalty My HANDS to larger service and my HEALTH to better living for my club, my community, my country, and my world. Rest in peace Ms Hester!

- D. Louis Gruver, Jr, Atlanta, GA

Clay and Wesley my prayers are with you both. She will be greatly missed.

I am so sad to hear that Nancy passed away. I remember her from Savannah High School and she was such a lovely, sweet girl. I had just seen a recent picture of her on Facebook. My thoughts are with her family.

Nancy was my dear friend. We met at Georgia Southern and my husband, Gary and I shared many wonderful memories with Nancy and her family. My Phi Mu Big Sister, Bridesmaids in each other's weddings, roommates on a tour through Europe, vacations and some great Georgia/Florida trips together. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity I had to spend a day with Nancy just one month ago. A dear friend and a beautiful lady and I will miss her!

- Gail Laney, Johns Creek, GA

We grew up together. Jacob G. Smith, Wilder, Savannah High, Georgia Southern and most importantly Wesley Monumental Methodist Church and Wesley Gardens. What a beautiful lady. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Nancy Hester was not only our client, she was our true friend. JB and I spent evenings at our home together, cook outs at her beautiful homes, laughed together and we cried together. She could cook a steak and potatoe better than anyone! When she moved to her home in Causton Bluff it was a new beginning. She was a Georgia girl! Just like her baby dog, Georgia. I have never seen such a beautiful lady more heartbroken for these last years , Savannah has lost a treasure full of memories, to young to leave us. May God be with her sons, family, and the joy she brought to us!

- Christopher Morrison, Savannah, GA

I only knew Nancy for a few years. She was a delightful person and she will be missed.
