Born October 21, 1933, Nancy was a lifelong Charlottean. She was the youngest of six sisters and one brother. Nancy caught Bob's eye after being featured on a billboard for being named the winner of the "Miss Milk" beauty pageant. For over 25 years Nancy and Bob owned and operated Mart Foods at the Charlotte Merchandise Mart. Their time there was highlighted by many events, including a dinner for President George Bush.
Nancy was a loving wife and a wonderful mother. The joy of her life was her family. She was married to her devoted husband Robert (Bob) for 63 years. She is survived by her three beloved children, Jack Wilson (Renee), Robert T Wilson, Jr., (Samantha Hutt), and Brenda Wilson Oswald (Mark). She will also be remembered by her grandchildren, Jason Wilson, Piper Wilson Rowe (Nick) and Kaley Wilson.
A celebration and remembrance of Nancy's life will be held at McEwen Pineville Chapel, 10500 Park Road, Charlotte NC 28210 on Sunday November 18, 2018, at 2:00 pm. The family will receive friends following the service.
