Nancy Louise Lively was born to John Jr. and Ada Cook (Landrum) on November 7th, 1947. She had one younger brother, Johnny, and many cousins and uncles that shaped who she became as a person.
She enjoyed spending time with her surviving children and their spouses. Jason (Jodie) Kolb, Johnance (Jeremy) Strueh, Jonathon (Renee) Lively, Patrick (Laura) Lively, Jake (Rachael) Lively. She deeply loved her grandchildren Ivy, Brady, River, Lucas, Dylan, Gage, Ethan, Elijah, Alex, Jacen, Bryson, Zyler, Aiden, Gigi, Penny, Lucy, Maddy, Rosaleen, and Wynston.
She was preceded in death by her husband John, and her children Tracy and Scott.
Nancy was a wild and amazing human with a heart of gold. She was always welcoming to everyone, and she loved every child she ever met. In her life she raised many (adopted) children and there were many children that felt safe in her home when they had no place to go. If you knew Nancy, you loved her. She will be missed greatly.

This really hurt my heart to hear… Nancy was always like a second mom to me! Lol! 🥹😢
I pray that she has found true peace in Heaven, and that her friends and family make it through this difficult time. I can only imagine what they all must be going through right now.
I will be praying for all of you.
Rest In Peace, Nancy.
