Nancy was a longtime and active member of St. John United Church of Christ in Arlington Heights. She enjoyed gardening, sewing, baking and being at her favorite getaway, the lake house. She was always ready to sit and chat over a cup of coffee. Nancy had many different roles including working at JC Penney, playground supervisor at school, church secretary, but her favorite role of all was being a Grandma. She would drop anything to babysit and spend time with her Grandkids and loved every single minute of it.
