Nancy C. Harris Streacker

Nancy was born in Boonville, Indiana on August 20, 1939, the daughter of Edward and Helen (Hart) Thompson. She would later go on to marry Richard “Noel” Streacker on July 11, 1987. As an extremely hardworking woman, Nancy worked for Boonville Oil Company, Boot City Outlet in Terre Haute and Kadel’s Hallmark in North Plaza. She was a dedicated woman of the Lord, and was a faithful member of the Eighth Avenue Baptist Church. Nancy really loved her little girl Carmen and also enjoyed traveling, reading, shopping and collecting knick knacks of all sorts. But most of all, her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her greastest pleasure. Her warm hearted, compassionate and caring demeanor will live on in the hearts of those she touched for generations to come.

Nancy leaves behind her husband of twenty five years, Richard “Noel” Streacker; mother, Helen Thompson; children, William H. (Carla Switzer) Streacker, Scott (Pam Noble) Harris, Joe (Denise) Streacker, Brian Harris, Sara (Craig Smith) Ruffner, Rich Streacker and Robert (Estela) Streacker. Nancy was the proud and loving Nanny of eighteen grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her brother, David (Janet) Thompson and her sister, Tanya (Don) Atkins, along with several loving nieces, nephews and friends.

Nancy was welcomed home to heaven by her daughter, Beth Ann Barnett, and her father Edward Thompson.
