Nancy Pampel Obituary

Nancy Pampel

Nancy Pampel, 59, of Pawcatuck, CT passed peacefully Saturday, Oct. 5, 2024 at Westerly Hospital.

She was born in Westerly, she was the daughter of Patricia and Frederick Pampel Sr., who both predeceased her. Nancy lives on through her daughter Morgan Rogoff and beloved grandson Randall Rogoff-Beck. She is also survived by her brothers, Fredrick and Kevin Pampel; and sisters, Denise (Michael) Lenihan and Lisa (Jack) Stabach. She is survived by her dear nieces and nephews, Renee Coon, Thomas Lenihan, Cody Arsenault, and their families.

Nancy was a kind and caring soul who loved to connect with people and make them feel safe to be their true self. Even in the darkest of times she could find something to be positive about and saw the beauty in

everyone she met. You may have seen her at one of her many jobs over the years including Paragon, Spuchys, Foxwoods, the childcare center and after school program at the YMCA, or the Main Street Shell Station.

Nancy will also live on in all the people she has shown the true meaning of kindness to over the years. The best way to honor her memory is to extend the same kindness to others, to encourage everyone to embrace who they are, and to dance like no one is watching! Nancy will be missed dearly by all.

The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at the Westerly Hospital who have provided care for her over the years and in her final days. They would also like to thank the churches, families and friends who have supported her over the years, especially the Drureys of Westerly.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend a Funeral Service at First Hopkinton Seventh Day Baptist Church, 8 Church St., Ashaway on Sunday Oct. 20, 2024 at 2:00 PM. Burial is private.

Gaffney-Dolan Funeral Home, 59 Spruce St., Westerly is in charge of the arrangements. For online condolences please visit www.gaffneydolanfuneralhome.com.

Morgan,Lisa, Denise, Freddie and Kevin although we moved from Westerly to Chicago 20 years ago, Nancy has always been right in front of our eyes. She was the most loving and compasionate human i have ever known. Any phone conversation with her over the years brought our friendship too life right in front of me. I can see Pat and Nancy back to their shenanigans while Fred watches. lovde to you all
