REMEMBERING NANCY ROSEN STERN
(Ms. GILLEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. GILLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Nancy Rosen Stern on
what would have been her 60th birthday.
Nancy was a proud Long Islander who lived on the south shore her
entire life. She graduated from Lawrence High School and raised her
family in Hewlett, just a few miles from where she grew up.
Above all, what Nancy revered most was her family. It began with her
devoted parents, Joan and Marty, who passed down their moral compass to
Nancy and her sisters, Ilene and Lynn.
Along with her beloved husband, Steven, she raised three children,
Michael, Corey, and Samantha, who have all embraced her zest for life
and her passion for giving back to her community.
Nancy was looking forward to the birth of her first grandchild,
Sloane Naomi, and helped her daughter-in-law Gwen prepare for Sloane's
arrival. Sadly, she never had the opportunity to meet Sloane, but her
legacy lives on in her beautiful smile and cheerful personality.
Throughout her life, Nancy strove to give back to those in need. She
was incredibly active in the Marion & Aaron Gural JCC of the Five
Towns, helping children with special needs. The UJA meant very much to
her.
A devoted daughter, best friend to her sisters, proud mother,
supportive aunt, grandmother, reliable friend, and soulmate to her
husband, Nancy Rosen Stern will always be remembered.
I am honored to share her story with all of my colleagues here today.
May her memory be a blessing.
