All about Nancy
There isn’t much out there about Nancy but Alexia’s detailed and adorable Instagram post she created after her passing tells us all we need to know, and from what we can gather, she was pretty amazing.
Alexia described her mom as a strong woman but above anything else, she showed her admiration for how she was a ‘trailblazer’ in all aspects of her life.
Nancy was originally from Cuba and came to the US when she was younger as a political refugee escaping the chaos at the time in her own country. In the US, Nancy managed to create a much more substantial life for herself.
From what we can gather, she had a career in the medical industry as Alexia told fans her mom put herself through medical school when she came to the states, with no support whatsoever.
Nancy came to the US when she was a girl with her mother where she ended up getting pregnant and raising three children successfully by herself in Miami, Florida, with the support of her own mother – Alexia’s grandmother.
Alexia continued to describe Nancy as a feminist with liberal social views and wrote,
She always had an educated opinion. Her thoughts and views were so particular and unique. The crazy thing was she was always right!

The post was long but incredibly emotional and full of love where Alexia described her mother and her fulfilling life. She also expressed all of the things she had learnt from her throughout her life that have shaped her into the woman she is today. Alexia said,
She showed me to live unapologetically, never look back, and don’t regret the things you’ve done but the things you haven’t. I will always cherish your stories, your wisdom, your strength, and your zest for life. I’ll always admire your love for connecting with people and I will always share the love for your second homeland, Spain.
