Nancy Blodgett Obituary
Penacook, NH — Nancy Ann Blodgett of Penacook passed away peacefully in the company of loved ones on December 24, 2021 at Granite VNA Hospice House in Concord, NH, after a period of declining health.
Nancy was born December 15, 1934, in Lunenburg Vermont to Aaron and Veronica Steenbergen.
She graduated from Penacook High School in 1952, and in 1956, married Fred K Blodgett in Claremont, NH. They had four children together. She lived a life dedicated to others--as a mother, a homemaker, a scout leader for both Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts, and caregiver to family and community members.
Nancy did volunteer work for the Merrimack Valley School District as a reading tutor and did charity work for various organizations. She worked at the NH Board of Nursing until her retirement.
She enjoyed writing poetry, reading, walking, and her grandchildren.
Nancy was predeceased by her husband, Fred, and her brothers Alan Steenbergen, Andrew Steenbergen, and Arnold Steenbergen. She is survived by her son Fred K. Blodgett Jr, her daughter Mary E. Keenan and husband Patrick, her son James S. Blodgett and wife Jean, and son Michael E. Blodgett and wife Aime; sister Mary Dragon, her brother Aaron Steenbergen and his wife, Shirley, and her grandchildren Derrick Blodgett, Liam Blodgett, and James Blodgett.

My deepest condolences. I have fond memories of her from being at Rolfe Park, sitting or wading in the little pool with her grandbaby. That was many years ago. Such a beautiful, friendly lady.

To the Blodgett family I was your Mom's paper carrier for almost 12 years what a wonderful person she was. She would leave me out notes and trinkets in the early am, my heartfelt condolences to you all.
