Nadine Cansler Obituary
1935-2025
Nadine Cansler, 90, Gower, Missouri, passed away Wednesday, September 17, 2025.
She was born on September 17, 1935 to Alva and Aliene Boggess.
Nadine embraced life fully as a cherished wife, a supportive mother, and the matriarch of a large, adoring family. Her unwavering devotion shone brightest in her lasting 75 years of marriage to her soulmate, Hershell.
Beyond her professional life as a beautician, Nadine's passions enriched the lives around her. A culinary artist at heart, she loved to cook. Whether it was a simple family dinner or a grand holiday feast, Nadine's cooking was the heart of many gatherings. Alongside the clatter of pots and pans, the soft click of her crochet needles provided a comforting rhythm to the hum of family life.
Above all, Nadine's world revolved around her family. She ardently believed in the strength of her family ties, cherishing every moment spent with her children and their offspring.
Nadine was preceded in death by her parents, her brother AJ Boggess, her son Randy, and her daughter Ryvana.
Her legacy of love is carried on through her survivors: her husband Hershell, her sons, Roger, Russell, and Ron Cansler, her many grand and great-grandchildren, all of whom brought immense joy and pride to her heart.
Nadine Cansler's passage from this world leaves a void that is deeply felt but is filled with countless memories and lessons that continue to resonate.
