Nancy Wilkins Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Nancy Ann Wilkins, 63 of Bolivar, Tennessee.
She passed on peacefully in her home on August 19,2024. Nancy was a fighter who loved everyone she met. She never met a stranger. Her favorite greeting was “Hey Youngin” while she was a greeter at Walmart for over 27 years. She loved Elvis and all things Cherokee. She loved her family with all of her heart. Nancy was such a selfless, giving person, that she donated her body to Genesis Science Center in hopes of finding a cure for cancer.
She is preceded by her sister, Mary Ann Wilkins; mother, Elladrew Cox.
She leaves behind her family, Will Moore and Margie Baker; Jessica Gates, Josh Smith, Austin Smith, Luke Smith; Sara(Sissy) Clampitt, Zack Clampitt, Hunter Clampitt and Addie Clampitt; Danny and Bobby Wilkins.
Memorial Services honoring Nancy’s life will be Sunday, August 25,2024 at Bolivar Shackelford Funeral Home. Visitation to begin at 1 pm, Memorial Service to begin at 2 pm.
Thank you all for loving Nance as much as we do.
“Until we meet again, may God bless you as he has blessed me.” -Elvis Presley
