Nancy Ann Vaitkevicius (Sullivan, Forrester), 82, Whispering Pines, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 14, 2025.

Nancy was born July 9, 1943, in Worcester, Michigan. Nancy lived a rich and active life, marked by determination, resilience, and an unshakable spirit. She was a devoted mother, grandmother, and friend. Her kindness touched all who knew her. Having discovered in her 80s that she had three family members on the Mayflower gave her great joy, and she became an enthusiastic member of the Mayflower Association. She had a gift for finding beauty in simple moments and often shared her wisdom generously.

Her family remembers her as someone who could light up a room, who offered an always cheerful disposition, and found joy in watching life's everyday wonders.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Anthony and Louise Back Vaikevicius, and brother, Richard Vaitkevicius.

She is survived by her daughter Jacqueline Sullivan, son Michael Sullivan, Jr., grandson Boden Sullivan, and many beloved friends.

Her memory will live on in the hearts of her family and friends, who take comfort in knowing that her legacy of love and resilience will continue to guide them.

Details regarding arrangements and services will be shared in the days ahead.
