Nancy Ann Clark (89) of Derby, Kansas, passed away at her home on Thursday, January 30, 2025, in the loving company of her family. She was born on November 24, 1935, in the small town of Conover, Ohio. She met her husband Donald on a blind date, and they married on May 26, 1957, then quickly departed Ohio for Omaha, Nebraska, where both of their children were born.
She is survived by her husband of 67 years, Donald; brother, William H. (Janice) Maxson; son, Jim Clark; daughter, Diana (Tim) Mott; granddaughters, Jessica (BJ) Asher, Andrea (Ryan) Glessner, Amy (Matt) Warriner, and Jamie (Opie) Hilton; great-grandchildren, Corwin (Courtney) Asher, Taylor Asher, Lane Asher, Karalinna Warriner, Levi Asher, Olliver Warriner, Simon Warriner, and Henric Warriner; and great-great-grandchildren, Cainey and Cash Asher. She is preceded in death by her parents, Harold A. and Elizabeth K. Maxson and brother, John F. Maxson.
Nancy was the biggest cheerleader for her children and grandchildren and loved giving and getting hugs from all of them. She thoroughly enjoyed collecting and telling stories about her family and sharing anecdotes from her many traveling experiences, near and far. As an avid reader and crossword puzzler, she could tackle any word game with zeal. In addition to being a sharp wordsmith, Nancy could also cut a rug with Donald on the dance floor. Nancy attended First Pentecostal Church with her husband and participated in many extracurricular activities. Her bright smile and laugh could light up a room. She will, without a doubt, be missed by so many beloved family members and friends.
