Nancy was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses for over 35years; her recent joy was viewing Bible based videos at home and reviewing the information in the book "Imitate Their Faith". It was not easy but she was especially happy to attend the International convention in Indianapolis, Indiana in 2014. It reminded her of the conventions when she first began to attend many years ago.
She also enjoyed gardening when she was younger. Every year she would order seeds and plant a garden in the tradition of her grandmother Amanda. Nancy also was gifted with the talent of art, oil painting was her favorite, and she also enjoyed cooking.
