Nancy A. Bartley

To all my family, acquaintances, and close friends, I passed away on Friday, September 19, 2025, at Toledo ProMedica with my loving family by my side so I would not be alone. It was sudden, it was unexpected, and I just did not have the time to prepare for this or say goodbye to you. Where should I start? I was born in Dayton, Ohio, and grew up in Springfield, Ohio. I was preceded in death by my loving father, Frank W. Wagenhals; my mother, Aletha (Don) Stout; dear brother, Ron “Ronnie” Wagenhals; my aunt, Mary Ann Brockerman; along with two of my granddaughters, Ashley Wallick and Mikaya Feucht; and fur babies, Barron, Punkin and Rocky. If I have forgotten anyone, please forgive me, my mind is not what it used to be. On the other hand, I am still survived by my three wonderful children: Kim (Kevin) Wallick, Michelle (Chuck) Curran, Rodger (Michael-Ann Cox) Bartley; my favorite grandson, Cody (Nathan Stouffer) Swartz; and favorite granddaughter, Amanda Wallick; my two great-grandsons, Lane and Reed Curran; my ex-husband, Rodger (Janet) Bartley and my beloved golden retriever, Sadie girl, who is now with a new and loving family, thanks to Golden Retriever Rescue. I also leave other family members, acquaintances, many wonderful friends, both old and new throughout my life. Some friendships go way back to high school in Springfield, Ohio, past jobs, and some friendships are very new and recent. Whatever the relationship, you all hold a special place in my heart, I mention you often when talking with others. I have worked most of my career in automotive dealerships, usually as an office administrator or office manager at such places as Adkins Chevrolet, Billy Brooks, Graff Auto Mall and most recently, Bauman Auto Group in Tiffin, Ohio, where I retired. My family is planning a celebration of life for me in Fostoria in the near future, maybe in the spring. I’m so excited and hope you all can be a part of this time together, so please look here for further details. In the meantime, my new home is at Glen Haven Memorial Park in New Carlisle, Ohio, where I am resting peacefully with the man, I loved the most in life, my father, Frank W. Wagenhals. So next time you are near, please come by for a visit, say hello, tell me what’s new and different and what’s going on in your world. Just remember, I love you all!
