Nancy Lynne Morrow, 77, passed away peacefully at her home in Petrolia on Saturday, October 4, 2025.

Born in Pennsylvania on October 11, 1947, Nancy graduated from Clarion University with a degree in English and education. She spent her life as a teacher, encouraging her students to stay curious and kind. She was a woman of great love, enjoying dancing with her husband Denny, visits with her family, shopping with her girls Jean and Lynn, as well as her family's monthly game day. In her own time, Nancy enjoyed puzzles, cross stitch, politics, and watching animal documentaries.

Nancy was preceded in death by her parents Thomas and Jean Boden, her sister Jean Rusnak (Boden) and her cousin Bill Russell. She lives on through her husband, Denny Morrow and their children Sean Morrow and his wife Brenda Ealey, Lynn Caplea (Morrow) and her husband Michael Capela, and Jean Ealy (Morrow) and her husband Shawn Ealy. As well as their grandchildren Josh "Lex" Morrow, Frank Hortert, Jillian and Cecilia Morrow, Carter Ealy, Michael Kessler, Ethan, Aiden, and Phoenix Caplea, Nancy is also survived by her beloved cousin, Luanne Russell.

She will be remembered for the love and laughter she gracefully gave to her friends and family. Nancy lives on through the lives she touched as an educator at A.C. Valley. Nancy would want you to carry a song in your heart, curiosity in your mind, and to dance like there is no one watching.
