Through the years she worked in other governmental positions and ended her career working for the Milwaukee VA. Nancy was an avid Milwaukee Brewer and Green Bay Packer fan and was proud of her hole in one in golf. She was a member of Sts. Constantine and Helen Church where she was an active member of Philoptochos. Nancy’s greatest joy was spending time with her family especially birthday parties, holiday celebrations, picnics, and school events. She was a kind and gentle lady, yet had a spunky, feisty spirit.
