Nancy was a kind, gentle soul who made everyone feel welcome. Her kitchen was a place where many fond memories were made. She was known for her delicious cheesecakes, cookies and angel food cakes, along with her ability to create a meal for anyone who stopped by.

She volunteered at Shorehaven and Bethesda for many years and worked at Honey Acres. She loved to spend time in her garden, loved animals, and being outside. In her spare time, she could be found reading and studying her Bible or doing puzzles.

Nancy's greatest joy came from her family, particularly her cherished grandchildren. She showered them with love, creating lasting memories through shared adventures and quiet moments of tenderness. Her role as a mother, grandmother, and friend brought immeasurable happiness to her life.

The family would like to thank the staff at The View at Pine Ridge and Angels Grace Hospice for the compassionate care they provided.

In lieu of flowers, memorials in Nancy’s name can be made out to Angels Grace Hospice or to St. John’s Ladies Aid.
