Nancy Ann Johnson, age 62, of Brookhaven, Pa., passed away peacefully at home on September 13, 2025, with her loving husband at her side.

Born in Upper Darby, Pa., Nancy was the daughter of the late James Francis and Barbara (née Culver) Chambers. She was a proud graduate of Ridley High School. Nancy began her career at Sacred Heart Hospital in Chester before serving for many years as the staffing coordinator at Broomall Nursing and Rehabilitation, where her kindness and dedication touched many lives.

Nancy found joy in life's simple pleasures, especially going to the movies and enjoying dinners in Philadelphia's Chinatown. She will be remembered for her warmth, her sense of humor, and the deep love she shared with her family.

She is survived by her devoted husband of 18 years, Leon I. Johnson; her brother James (Dionna) Chambers; her sister Donna (Tom) Lewis; and many cherished nieces and nephews.

Services and interment will be held privately. In lieu of flowers, contributions in Nancy's memory may be made to Main Line Health Home Care & Hospice, 240 N. Radnor-Chester Road, Suite 340, Radnor, Pa. 19087.
