Nancy Rhea Obituary

Nancy Nierth Rhea passed away Thursday, Dec. 18, 2014. Funeral: 10:30 a.m. Tuesday at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. Interment: Skyvue Memorial Gardens in Mansfield. Vigil service and visitation: 7 to 9 p.m. Monday at Moore Funeral Home. Nancy was born March 26, 1953, to Larry and Winifred Nierth in Houston. In 1971, Nancy graduated from Spring Branch High School Houston and in 1983, she graduated with two bachelor's degrees, one in history and one in social work, from the University of Texas at Austin. She worked at the Center for Battered Women in Austin. One of Nancy's greatest attributes was her faith and conviction for helping those in need. Her compassion led to her being the best wife, mother, grandmother and friend anyone could ask for. She was a member of St. Vincent de Paul at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. Those who preceded in death were her parents and brother, Larry Tate Nierth Jr. Survivors: Beloved husband of 22 years, Don Rhea; son, Wayne Larry Nierth and wife, Vivian; and grandchildren, Eliana Voisa Nierth and Dillon Curt Nierth.

We are just a half year (actually 7 months and one week) apart in age. My, how we enjoyed those childhood days together...Easter egg hunting and Trick or Treating. Thanks for so many wonderful memories. You will be missed by many who love you and hold you dear. Now you are together with Uncle L.T., Aunt Winnie and your brother, Larry. My thoughts and prayers are with Don, Wayne and the whole family during this trying time and the holidays. God bless you all. Love, Cousin Kenney

Nancy was my best friend for 47 years, like a sister. We have seen each other through bad times and the good times. She was a confident and a positive support for what I wanted to do with my life. I will really miss my friend. God bless her and her family.
