Nancy Andersen Obituary

Nancy Andersen
August 14, 1940 - December 11, 2025
Nancy Andersen, 85, of West Redding, Connecticut, passed away peacefully on Thursday, December 11, 2025, after a brief illness. She was born August 14, 1940 in Dobbs Ferry, NY to Frank and Mary (Mastroianni) Bucci, the youngest of six children. Nancy had a passion for holiday decorating and cooking to feed her family, especially at Christmastime. She looked forward to entertaining family and friends at parties around her pool, and annual visits with childhood friends. She enjoyed traveling and vacationing in Florida and Maine, as well as shopping and watching General Hospital. Nancy was a loving pet parent to dogs, Mugs and Sam, and to cats, Meow, Ollie, and Charcoal. She is survived by stepdaughters, Lee Brockmann (Robert), Nonny Thompson (Walter), Diane Adams (Gary); stepdaughter-in-law and friend, Kathleen Andersen (Kevin Meskill); grandchildren, Robert Delmhorst (Stacey), Jennifer Gorman (Colin), Alisha Brooks (Daryl), James Delmhorst, Kimberly Andersen (Dick Dingee), Evan Andersen (Meg) and Kyle Thompson; 10 great-grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews. Nancy was predeceased by her husband and love of her life, William Andersen; stepson, B.G.; step-granddaughter, Angela Andersen and her sister, Mary; and brothers, Frank, Henry, Anthony, and William. Family will greet callers from 3-6 p.m. on Saturday, January 31, at Harding Funeral Home, 210 Post Road East, Westport, CT. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Georgetown Volunteer Fire Company. Her family would like to thank the Memory Care Unit at Maplewood of Newtown for their outstanding care and compassion during Nancy's last months.
