Nancy Gialluca Obituary

Visit the Dwayne R. Spence Funeral Home - Pickerington website to view the full obituary.
Nancy Jo Gialluca of Pickerington, OH, died unexpectedly at the age of 75 on August 22, 2025, after a short illness. Nancy was born to Earl and Lucille (Lyons) Beswick on May 12, 1950, in Canton, OH. She attended St. Paul Grade School and Timken Vocational High School (class of '68).

Nancy was a devoted wife of 52 years to the love of her life, Terry, who passed away earlier this year. Her passion and joy in life was being a mother to her two sons and "Nana Nancy" to her three grandchildren.

Over the years, Nancy made many lifelong friends through school and her work at The Timken Company, Cub Foods, Central Transport Company and Kubota Tractor Corporation. She stayed in touch with all her friends throughout the years. Nancy remained close to her six siblings and immensely enjoyed participating in the family card games.

Nancy was a collector of many things, but had a special fondness for her huge collection of teddy bears of all sizes. She was also an avid Buckeyes and Cleveland sports fan, and hardly ever missed a Browns or Indians/Guardians game on TV. Other favorites included watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune most evenings. The favorite part of every morning for Nancy was a hot cup of tea! Nancy was a member of Seton Parish in Pickerington, OH, and for many years, would volunteer at the parish's festival.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Terry Gialluca, her parents Earl and Lucille Beswick, and her in-laws Jim and Julia Gialluca and Rose Gialluca. Nancy leaves behind the following family, who will miss her forever and remember her dearly: sons Michael Gialluca and Daniel (Thera) Gialluca; and grandchildren Ava, Jack and Carly Gialluca. She is also survived by her siblings: brothers Ken (Terri) Beswick, Jim (Marty) Beswick and Alan (Tina) Beswick; sisters Jeanne (David) Toth, Cindy (Matthew) Horning, and Cheryl (Michael) Foutz; along with much-loved nieces and nephews.

Her life will be celebrated with calling hours on Tuesday, September 2, 2025, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the DWAYNE R. SPENCE FUNERAL HOME, 550 Hill Rd. N. Pickerington, OH 43147 with a funeral service to follow at 6:30 p.m.
