It is with great love and deep sadness that we share the passing of Nancy Burton Perry. 73 of Littleton Colorado. Nancy passed away on November 15, 2025, in Highlands Ranch. She was born October 3,1952 to Ralph and Iva Burton in Loves Park, Illinois. Nancy graduated from Harlem High School in 1970.
From an early age, Nancy had a joyful passion for dancing and disco music, an enthusiasm she carried thought her life and that brought her to be voted Best Dancer in high school. Her favorite group was Earth, Wind and Fire. She also had flair for doing hair, she would always say “I should have went to beauty School”, and she loved her fashion, she absolutely loved to have bling on her clothes especially her Denver Broncos shirts and of course she would have the jewelry to match. She loved her Denver Broncos and never missed watching a game. She especially enjoyed watching the games with her sons. She loved spending time with friends especially the girls get togethers and she was blessed as she had forever friendships from High School who she still was in contact with. Simply put Nancy loved life.
After settling in Colorado, she embraced the beauty of the Rocky Mountains, finding joy in skiing and spending time outdoors, she loved having friends come to Colorado where she would make sure that a trip to the mountains was on the itinerary so that she could share that beauty with them. At home she found comfort in knitting and reading and she loved to unwind with a good book after a long day.
Nancy will be remembered for her humor, warmth, kindness and that smile with those beautiful dimples and laugh which would light up a room. She was always ready to share a glass of wine and a good laugh with people she loved. Her greatest love was for her son's C.J. and Al and those two precious grandsons, she loved them with all her heart. She will be remembered for her generous heart, her bright spirit, and the joy she brought others everyone fortunate to know her.
Nancy is survived by her two children C.J. Perry, (daughter-in-law Meghan Strang) Alex Perry and her cherished grandchildren, Brother, Dewey Burton and Niece Michelle along with many loving cousins and dear friends who will feel her loss profoundly.
Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, Ralph and Iva Burton and her nephew Corey "Bubba" Burton.
