Each One Teach One. Soror Nancy Finley Barbour embodied this African proverb with every fiber of her being through her compassion, service and advocacy. Soror Barbour was a compassionate woman and demonstrated it by speaking with kindness; listening to other perspectives; encouraging others and helping out when needed. She was a servant leader who could be out front, but was not too proud to work in the background. Whatever needed to be done for the greater good; that is what Nancy was committed to doing. Soror Barbour was a fierce advocate in whatever cause she decided to undertake. Whether it was educating women on breast cancer awareness and providing resources; creating a program to recognize academic achievement for black and brown students in Loudoun County Public Schools; or strategically planning programs and initiatives to ensure that the community was educated, empowered and ready to participate in the election cycle – Nancy could be found advocating for marginalized members of the community.

 

Soror Nancy Barbour believed in training the next generation of leaders and served as a mentor to many. Her example is the blueprint by which we all can follow in service to our families, Sorority and community.
