Nancy P. Davis

Goffstown, NH - Nancy Patricia (Pearson) Davis departed for her heavenly home on September 28, 2025. Born in Peterborough, NH on March 17, 1928, she grew up in Manchester and graduated from West High School, Class of 1945. As an adult, Nancy lived a full life marked by resilience, independence, and service to others. Raising her 6 children in Windsor, VT she truly loved her family and community and they truly loved her. She promoted both at every opportunity.

Nancy was a member of the St. Francis of Assisi Church where she served as a greeter and worked in the food bank. She volunteered for many organizations including the Windsor Public Library, the Community Food Shelf, Mt. Ascutney Hospital, Compassionate Friends, and the Old South Church rummage sale. She enjoyed attending the Windsor Community Dinners.

She was passionate about her profession as a librarian at the Windsor Public Library and as the Children's Librarian at State Street School. She completed her career in education as receptionist at Windsor High School. In addition, she enjoyed working at The Flower Kart and Vermont State Craft Center in Windsor.

Nancy loved reading, music, flowers, art, and travel, but her greatest pleasure was spending time with her family and friends.

Nancy was predeceased by her parents, Carl and Edith (Hould) Pearson, sister Jean Mijal, infant daughter Alice, son Paul, and grandson Paul Kelson. She is survived by her 5 children: Kathleen (Thomas) Mancini, Keith (Joy) Davis, Karen Johnson, Kristen (Dan) Hagler, Peter (Kim) Davis, her siblings Carl (Cil) Pearson, Karen Goodwill, David (Amelia) Pearson, Susan Soule, 13 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.

A celebration of Nancy's life will be held at a later date.

Memorial donations may be made to the Windsor Public Library, 43 State Street, Windsor, VT. 05089.

My condolences to Nancy's family. I was lucky to work at State Street School in Windsor at the same time as Nancy. She became a special friend during those years.

Dear Family of Nancy,
All of my memories of Nancy are sweet and enduring. My connection with Nancy goes back in time to State St. School. She was our Librarian and you could always count on Nancy to find whatever anyone was looking for. I´d wander in at times just to listen to her reading to a class of children. She loved having children around and she loved books. We would often have lunch together in the library when it was closed. She would have VPR Classical playing softly in the background and we would talk and catch up on the latest school news. Quite often she would have an award winning children´s book selected for me to read. The stories were beautifully illustrated and the stories themselves always made me smile. She was always thoughtful and considerate of others and a pleasure to be with. She will be missed by her Family of Friends at State St. School and I for one will always keep her close in my heart.
With Love & Sympathy,
Bunny Lavoie&Bonnie Bollman

I knew Nancy by her endearing grandmother name "Meme" (pronounced "mee-mee"). I will always remember fondly Meme´s bright smile and hospitality when she hosted us in Windsor. My husband (one of Meme´s grandchildren) most certainly gets his extroversion from her. Her light shines on in the family and community she loved. Sending big hugs and prayers to those closest to this loss. Meme will be greatly missed.
