Nancy Kay Fox, 74, of Hamilton, TX passed away on January 25, 2023, in Temple, TX. She was born on March 7, 1948 in Austin, TX to Elie and Ila Mae ‘Miles’ Talbot. Nancy graduated in 1966 from McCallum High School in Austin. After high school, she went to beauty school and became a beautician for many years. Later she went on and met her “Marlboro Man” Winters Fox and they were married on March 7, 1986. They were married for 35 years when he passed in 2021.
Nancy was a hard worker and held many job titles from a beautician, school bus driver, business owner, chef, ranch worker and a few more. However, her most important and probably her favorite was Mimi. She was a Mimi to everyone and was how she introduced herself later in life. Mimi loved spending time with her grandkids and great grandkids and loved taking them to stock shows, or to any other events they were involved in. She loved nothing more than sharing her love of a homemade Cajun cooked meal with them all. She was well known for her peach cobbler and homemade banana pudding. Nancy loved to gamble at the casino, country club, or host a poker night at their house with all of her girlfriends. She definitely loved to shop and never left the house without a full face of makeup and being dressed in her newest outfit, even if it was just to the grocery store. Her and Winters loved to go to Ruidoso and there they caught the “racehorse bug”. She loved to unwind on the porch in the evenings with a drink. Concerts, old country music, and dancing were some more of her favorite things throughout all her life. Mimi was loved by all and will be deeply missed.
