Nancy spent 68 wonderful years married to William (Bill) Eisenlohr of Winsted, CT, where they raised their 4 children. Together, they filled their days with laughter and adventures, always side by side, savoring every moment. Their bond was a shining example of devotion and companionship.
Nancy had a beautiful smile and an immense love for her family, friends, and life. Her playful spirit and sense of humor lifted the hearts of those around her. She approached every challenge with determination, inspiring all who witnessed her strength and perseverance.

Nancy never stopped seeking knowledge or excitement. Whether she was exploring a new country, curling up with a favorite novel with a cup of tea by her side or dancing in the arms of her beloved Bill, Nancy lived with joy and purpose.
