Candace Nance Gilbert

She is survived by her husband of 22 years, James; her son Edward, and parents Joe and Ramona Nance.

Candace graduated with honors from the University of Texas at Austin. She will be remembered by the many people whose lives she touched. She pioneered the Spicewood Elementary computer club, begun when her son Edward entered kindergarten. When Edward enrolled in sixth grade at Kirby Hall School, she again volunteered to teach computer science to grades four through twelve. Candace loved England. Candace and her husband James were married at the Episcopal Church in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, located in the midlands of England next to Candace’s family castle.
