Nancy Spent most of her professional career working as a secretary serving the staff, students, and community of Thornridge High School.  Nancy remained a devoted parishioner of St. Maria Goretti Church.  The church was her life, and she developed lifelong memories and friendships through the church.  Nancy loved the city of Chicago, Lake Michigan, and especially shopping at Marshall Fields.  Nancy was a wonderful host, and loved entertaining family, friends, and loved ones.  She was a world traveler who enjoyed spending time exploring new places.  The perfect day for Nancy was spent on or near the water, with her loved ones, at her condo on Paw Paw Lake or in Clearwater Beach Florida.

Nancy was the life of many parties.  Her wonderful smile and laughter along with her beautiful bright hair could be seen across any room.    She was always dressed to the nines, and more than anything loved to share a story with anyone who would listen.  We will miss you dearly Nani, but we know you are reunited with your lord and in a much better place.  This is not a goodbye, but instead a see you later.

Visitation will be held at 9:00am on Friday March 22nd at St. Maria Goretti Church in Dyer, Indiana with a funeral service to follow at 10:00am.  Interment to follow at 11:30 at Holy Cross Cemetery in Calumet City, Illinois.
