Carmine J. Nardis

Carmine was a devoted husband, brother, uncle, psychologist, and friend whose kindness, humility, and compassion left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.

Born on March 13, 1962, in Canton, Ohio, Carmine was the son of the late Quintino and Alderina Nardis. He graduated from GlenOak High School before earning his Ph.D. in Psychology from The Ohio State University. Carmine dedicated his career to helping others through his work as a psychologist. He took great pride in his profession and was deeply committed to improving the lives of those he served, approaching each person with patience, dignity, and genuine care.

Above all, Carmine was a family man who treasured the people he loved. He shared 36 wonderful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Nancy, whom he married in 1990. He looked forward to annual trips with his brothers and nephews, enjoyed golfing and fishing, and found joy in cooking, often sharing his love through the meals he prepared for others. Carmine had a wonderful sense of humor, loved to have fun, and never met an animal he wouldn't try to help. His generous spirit, humble nature, and quiet compassion will be deeply missed.

Carmine is survived by his loving wife, Nancy Nardis; his brothers, Joseph (Sharon) Nardis and Dominic (Debbie) Nardis; his brothers-in-law, Frank Iulianelli, Anthony Iulianelli and Ricky (Anna) Iulianelli; his sister-in-law, RoseMarie (Edward) Schnell; his nieces and nephews, Stacey (Shawn) McPherson, Christine (Tim) Eversole, Michael (Kelly) Nardis, George (Kristy) Schnell, Michael Schnell, Edward Schnell, Brian (Maegan) Johnston, Christian Iulianelli, and Andrew Iulianelli; as well as a great-nephew, great-nieces, extended family members, and cherished friends.

Funeral services will be held privately at a later date.

Carm, you are my best friend. You are my sunshine. You are the light in my every day. You are the air that I breathe and the happy to any of my sad. Your everyday selfless acts of kindness, your humble nature and your captivating smile is what brought me to you. The life we shared was nothing but beautiful. You have shared so much and given your whole heart to me. Thank you for choosing me and thank you for our beautiful life. I know you will always be near. You know you will always be in my heart. I love you.
