Nancy Weisel Obituary

Nancy Weisel
Nancy Weisel passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loved ones, on December 6 after a courageous battle with ALS.
Nancy was a resident of Eugene for thirty years, during which time she dedicated herself to improving the lives of people in our community. She was a licensed clinical social worker who will be remembered for her work as the Clinical Director at the Center for Community Counseling, a position in which she facilitated access to mental healthcare for individuals regardless of their income. Following this, she worked at the University of Oregon as a therapist and clinical coordinator assisting in the development of healthy families. In service to a variety of communities across the country, she trained other therapists in a low-cost, family-centered intervention that was made available through several federally funded prevention studies.
She will be remembered by many for her loving and caring nature. When her eyes twinkled at you, you felt her embrace. She had an astounding ability to make everyone feel heard, as though they were the most important thing in her life at that moment. She was a fiercely loyal friend and a loving and supportive mother. She was an inspiration to many and she will be dearly, dearly missed
She is survived by her children, Ryan Eustis and Dana Eustis, as well as her partner Charles Schauer. A celebration of her life will be held in the summer of 2020.

Will always remember as a very sweet cousin. Even though she was older than i, she was so genuine in her affection for me and us younger cousins. Will be remembered fondly. Condolences for her family and loved ones.

I still can't believe she's gone; she was such a vital, warm person. Our relationship was crucially important to me and healing for both of us -- we both described it in later years as "life-changing." I wrote more about her and her importance to me here: https://bit.ly/NancyWeisel. I loved her so much, once; I hope she felt that for the rest of her life; absurdly, I hope she feels it now. Vale, Nancy: farewell.

I am shocked and saddened to learn of Nancy's death. We were the best of friends when we were children growing up in Burlington, Wisconsin. She and her wonderful family were a big part of the happiness in my childhood. We lost touch but reconnected a few years ago via email. My heart goes out to her children.

It has been too many years since we cousins got together. I remember her gorgeous smile and tender heart. May Dana and Ryan find peace in knowing she no longer suffers and has left an amazing legacy that will remembered long after her passing. So heartbroken for your loss.
