Nancy moved to Miami in the late 1930s and later graduated from Miami Edison Senior High School. She married John Tyson (known as Ty) on December 23, 1960, and they raised their blended family in Hialeah, Florida.
From the mid-1960s to the mid-1990s Nancy enjoyed a career in typesetting, heading up her own companies for most of that time. For more than 25 years Nancy was an active member of the Miami Edison Over the Hill Gang, a multi-class high school reunion group which hosted large weekend reunions every two years.
As a young woman, Nancy enjoyed sewing most of her dresses, going to the beach, and dancing. After she and Ty were married, they and their friends spent many weekends boating and fishing all around south Florida. After retirement, travels around the United States in their RV and on bus tours filled much of their time.
Nancy is survived by Ty, her husband of over 62 years, and their five children: Laura Tyson Smith (Bill), Penny Tyson Ludwig (David), Timothy Wright (Judy Ware), Pamela Wright Foster (Jim), and Patricia Tyson Tapia (Roland). Her grandchildren are Suzanne Ludwig, Ronnie Ludwig, Tristan Wright, Kyleigh Swanburg, Emily Wright, and Leslie Wright.
There is no service planned.
