Nancy Fetch Obituary

BOARDMAN - Nancy Fetch, 84, passed away on September 6, 2023.

She was born on June 5, 1939, to the late John and Mary (Magada) Sanko. A lifelong area resident, Nancy was a graduate of Austintown Fitch High School.

She married Louis J. Fetch on August 30, 1958 and he preceded her in death on March 27, 2014.

Nancy was a remarkable woman who found joy and fulfillment in the simple pleasures of life, especially knitting, crocheting, and indulging in the art of needlepoint. Nancy's culinary skills were admired by all who had the privilege of her sharing the delicious meals and homemade baked goods. With pride, she embraced her Slovak heritage as well as her late husband's Italian roots, incorporating both into her cooking with love and care. Above all, she enjoyed sharing her culinary creations with family and the close neighborhood where she had resided. 

She is survived by her daughter, Gina (Kenneth) Svendsen, of the United Kingdom: sons, Lou (Mary) Fetch, of Cincinatti, John (Teresa) Fetch, of Charlotte, NC., and Rick Fetch (Brian Brewer) of DeBary, FL; sister, Mary Ellen Rorick, of Austintown; and grandchildren, Louie, Brian, Patrick and Nicole Fetch, Henrik and Matilda Svendsen; and great-grandchildren, Ella and Aidan Fetch.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11am on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 at St. Charles Borromeo Roman Catholic Church where calling hours will be held one hour prior.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in Nancy's memory to Save the Children, the World Wildlife Fund, or your local food bank.    Arrangements are by Higgins-Reardon Funeral Homes, Boardman-Canfield Chapel.
