So sorry Nanny has left us. Grew up in Streets back yard, with Mack, Stephen and Mark in their giant sand box ! Nanny was like a second mother to me. I am sure she is being welcomed with open arms, by my mom in the gates of Heaven. Oh how we were so blessed to have them as our parents.
Condolences to the entire Street family, I am lucky to have known Mrs. Street thru James Mack. All are very blessed.
We have you all in our thoughts and prayers. Kenny and family
I was saddened to read of Mrs Street’s passing. She was a wonderful woman. Many years ago she was my Cub Scout leader, and taught us many values that I carry with me today. It’s my prayer that God grants the family peace during this time of sorrow.
