Nancy was married on December 20, 1959, in Farmland to Melvin Geiger. Together, the family raised their four children in Churubusco. Melvin preceded her in death on February 5, 2003.
Nancy was known for her warm heart and loving spirit. She was dedicated to the Churubusco Daycare and the Churubusco Methodist Church Preschool, where she poured her love and care into nurturing many children.
An avid reader, Nancy found joy and tranquility in the magic of words. However, what mattered most to Nancy was the precious time she spent with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, attending their activities, and making unforgettable memories. Nancy loved to host family gatherings, especially during the festive seasons of Thanksgiving and Christmas. Her family was her most valuable treasure.
