Nancy Prouty Obituary
She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Alfred (Slim) Prouty, and her brother, Walter J. Reidl.
She is survived by her sister, Cora Jean Reidl of Chicago, IL; niece, Jo Ann (Reidl) Pena of Chicago, IL; great-niece, Enycia Pena of Chicago, IL; great-nephew, Jonah Pena of Chicago, IL; and sister-in-law, Maita Reidl of Des Plaines, IL.
She was married to (Slim) in the 1960's and joined him for many years on ranches devoted to training racehorses. When they moved to Arkansas, Nancy began working at a Title and Trust Company until her retirement.
