Nancy Schwartz Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 17, 2017.
Nancy was born in Creekside, Pennsylvania on January 21, 1937 to Harold and Ruth Vinton. Nancy had a zest for life unparalleled by most. She had a special bond with her grandmother Sadie. Nancy enjoyed working as an Escrow Manager and staying active with gardening, reading many novels, and traveling much of the globe with her husband. She derived much joy from her friends in the Red Hat Society. Nancy was an amazing mother and grandmother who adored her four grandchildren. She was the matriarch of the family and loved family get-togethers.

We will miss her dearly. She is survived by her husband Millard, Brother Sam Vinton and wife Lynda, son Greg Thobois and wife Sharon, son Gary Thobois and wife Martha, sons Barry Thobois and Loren Schwartz, daughter Dana Bessenecker and husband Chris, grandchildren Kathryn Thobois, Ashley Shannon and husband Patrick, and Sam and Morgan Bessenecker.

Services will be held in the chapel at Eternal Hills at 10:00 am and internment at 11:30 am on December 20, 2017 at Eternal Hills Memorial Park 1999 El Camino Real, Oceanside California

Our Dear and Beloved mother, Nancy is missed everyday. Her heart was filled with love
and loyalty to family and friends. Her strength taught me so many things and I will continue going on with the spark she shared with me.

Our dear and beloved mom and grandma left us one month ago. She was a Grand Lady who was loved by all. Mom loved family get togethers, bright colored clothes and a knack for colorful hair. Best of all she loved to spend time with her grandkids. We will miss her very much!

Nancy was a long time friend who I always said was timeless as she was always the life of the party, happy and a positive person.

I miss her dearly. She brightened your day and was always happy to hear from her friends.

She loved her family and talked about each and everyone so that you felt that you knew them too.
