Nancy put her career on hold devoting herself to her husband and children. Nancy taught in several levels and retired as a teacher in 2001. Nancy touched the lives of many students and educators, and was extremely involved in her community.
Nancy cherished family gatherings; whether it was at the Farm or Lake. Nancy had a zest for life, an infectious laugh, and love for music. Nancy and Chuck glided across every dance floor, and traveled extensively, after 57 years of marriage still their favorite place was just being with each other.
Nancy was genuine, the epitome of class, dignity and grace. Nancy's smile lit up a room and her eyes as beautiful as her soul.
