Even until her last breath, Nancy’s devotion and faith in God were an inspiration to us all.  An avid gardener and bird watcher, Nancy was inspired by all of God’s creation and loved to express this joy in her crafts.  All her life, Nancy was passionate about education and some of her happiest moments were teaching elementary school and reading to her beloved grandchildren.
