Here's the message received from Nancy's good friend Fay.
I am sharing the sad news of the passing of one of my beloved lifelong friends - Nancy Solomon. We had been friends since kindergarten. Whether it had been days, months or years between visits or calls, we could always talk and share like it had just been yesterday. I hope all of you have been blessed with such friends!
Nancy had been dealing with cancer and painful side effects from the cancer treatment.
Her sister is having a memorial on Saturday, December 20th at 2 p.m. in Brentwood.
Please text me or Sandi (Wildman) Padnos if you would like to join us and we will get the location details to you. Her sister asked us for a head count.
Love to you all,
Fay (Weisberg) Whitemountain (818) 322-5713
Sandi (818) 517-5888

I've known Nancy since 1st grade. Although I only saw her at reunions and get togethers for BHHS she was always sweet, kindhearted and welcoming to me. I can picture her right now as I write. I'm simply at a loss for words. Our Hawthorne family now has lost a big link to our past. It seems terribly unfair that such a fine person is now gone. RIP in peace Nancy, we'll all miss you.

I'm reposting what I wrote in our Facebook group, since I know not everyone is in that:
Such sad news. Nancy was so full of life, energy, and enthusiasm. It was always a delight to catch up at reunions. She always looked so youthful, too. I really thought she would never age or change. We knew each other even before Kindergarten, since her family lived across the street from me on Rexford Drive before they moved to Palm and she was one of my oldest friends. It so saddens and angers me to know that devil cancer got her and made her suffer. I am glad at least that her suffering is over. Sending sympathy to her sister Patti and rest of the family.

Nancy was one of the first people who welcomed me and made me feel comfortable when I came to Hawthorne in eighth grade. We had such great adventures together. She was always lovely and sweet and unjudgmental. We loved our catch-up at reunions, and I'm only sorry I didn't see her more. May her memory be a blessing

I remember Nancy from Hawthorne and what a very sweet kind person she always was.
May the memories you all shared bring you comfort at this very sad time.
