Nancy Bostwick

Born on October 2, 1946, in Darien, Connecticut, she was the daughter of Frederick and Ruth Hepp.

Nancy retired from the University of Alabama, where she served as an Administrative Assistant in the Culverhouse College of Business.

Adventurous, curious, and devoted to family, Nancy believed life was meant to be lived and enjoyed at every age. She loved traveling, discovering new places, and making memories along

the way. Of all the destinations she visited, the beach was always her favorite. The sunshine, sand, and sound of the waves brought her a special kind of happiness. But for Nancy, the greatest joy wasn’t simply where she went or what she did — it was sharing those experiences with the people she loved.

Nancy was a lifelong reader who was rarely without a book nearby and could happily lose herself for hours in a good story. She also enjoyed a lively game of bingo, a good board game,

or simply spending time with family and friends. Whether gathered around a table for a little friendly competition or setting off on another adventure, Nancy treasured the laughter,

companionship, and memories made along the way.

As an active participant in Focus 50+ and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), Nancy embraced opportunities to continue learning, stay active, enjoy new experiences, and build

lasting friendships. These organizations reflected her belief that growing older should never mean losing one’s curiosity or sense of adventure. Above all, Nancy loved her family immensely. She took great joy in the lives of her children and

grandchildren and cherished the time they spent together. Family was a constant source of love, comfort, and happiness throughout her life. The memories they shared, the stories they will tell,

and the love that connected them will remain an enduring part of her legacy.

Nancy is survived by her daughter, Kathy Hall and husband Zan of Northport, Alabama; her sons, Rick Bostwick of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, and Steve Bostwick and wife Nikki of Tampa,

Florida; her sister, Katherine “Kay” Watson of Lutz, Florida; and her four beloved grandsons, Brandon Hall and wife Beth of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Justin Hall and wife Bryson of Powder

Springs, Georgia, and Benjamin Bostwick and Dylan Bostwick, both of Tampa, Florida.

Her legacy will also continue through a great-grandchild expected to arrive in December, who will grow up hearing stories of the great-grandmother whose love was already part of the family’s story.
