Nancy Storey Walter

Nancy Storey Walter (84) died peacefully in her home on the evening of February 14, 2025. She was the daughter of Sadie Mae Storey and Lesley Gilliam Storey. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 54 years, Gerald Lewis Walter, Jr. She is survived by her three children, Leslie Walter Carver (David), Gerald “Jerry“ Walter III, and Hollie Walter Chitty (Marc). Her ten grandchildren: Taylor Carver (Katherine), Ashley Carver Meredith (Mitchell), Storey Carver Rotert (Will), Laura Walter, Hope Walter, Kate Walter, Hunter Chitty (Sadie), Sarah Chitty, Luke Chitty, Sam Chitty, and six great-grandchildren.

Nancy attended LSU, where she met her husband Gerald. She graduated in education, and taught school before staying home and raising her family. She volunteered in the community in many capacities. She was active in Chi Omega sorority alumnae, the Junior League of Baton Rouge, Vacation Bible School, various clubs, bible studies, golf, bridge, hiking, hunting and fishing. Later in life, Nancy pursued her passion to help others by returning to school to obtain her nursing degree. She worked at Earl K Long for several years and loved every minute of it. She later worked with The Hospice of Baton Rouge, where she had a true calling for caring for those in need.

Nancy loved her family, her friends, and her church, where she and Gerald became early members of the Chapel on the Campus. They attributed their spiritual growth as Christians to their pastor and friend, Donald Tabb.

Nancy was known to share her faith and claimed Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

Visitation will be held at First Presbyterian Church at 10:00am on Wednesday, February 19 following by a memorial service at 11:00am. Burial will follow at Resthaven Gardens of Memory.

The family would like to offer special thanks to Dorothy Winchester, Rosa White, Victoria Baker and Melanie Stephens, who gave Nancy such remarkable care.
