Mak Jum "Sally" Nevada

Mak Jum Nevada (Sally to her friends) passed away on June 15 in Anchorage, Alaska surrounded by loved ones. She was born in Pusan, Korea. She had one brother and several sisters. In 1958, she married Charles Nevada and they moved to Anchorage and started their family.
In 1977, the family moved to their lake-front property in Wasilla. She continued to live there for 44 years until she moved to Anchorage with her son Lawrence in the summer of 2020.
Sally loved hosting her friends for evenings of playing Korean cards, karaoke, and warm sake. Every summer, fishing and dip netting with family, friends, and her beloved Pomeranian was her passion. When you heard "Nevada!! Get the net!" You knew to hustle!
Sally is dearly missed by her sons Lawrence and Carl; daughter-in-laws, Laura and Susan; niece and nephew Sook Hee and Steve Stirling; grandchildren Tana Skye, Shelby, Lucas, Tony, Tyler, Micheal, Jeremy, and Nathan; great-nephews and nieces Richard, Racheal, Nam Hoon, Jung Min; and great-grandchildren Abigail, Charlie, Haley, and Clare.
She was preceded in death by her husband Charles; her brother Byung Joo An; her sister-in-law Kyung Yun An; her nephew Douglas An; and her Pomeranians Genie, Pinky, and Eggy.
A Celebration of Life has yet to be determined.
