Publish in a newspaper
Nancy attended both grade school and high school in Jacksonville, graduating as valedictorian of her high school class. She went on to earn a Bachelor's degree in Education and Home Economics from MacMurray College in 1961. Nancy began her teaching career at Northwestern High School in Palmyra, Illinois, where she taught Home Economics for three years, and later continued her teaching for more than a decade at Jonathan Turner Junior High School in Jacksonville, Illinois.
She had a lifelong love of gardening, collecting, and homemaking, and she poured her creativity and care into all she did.
Nancy is survived by her husband, Wayne Cully of Jacksonville, and her son, Carey Cully of Rockford, Illinois.
There will be no formal services held at this time. Memorials may be made out to the Dementia Society of America. Williamson Funeral Home in Jacksonville is in charge of arrangements. Condolences may be left online at www.airsman-hires.com
