She was the wife of David C.

Born in Camden, New Jersey, she was the daughter of the late Charles and Eleanor (Kleckner) Peterson.

Nancy was a devoted wife, loving and beloved mother and grandmother.

Known to her grandchildren as ‘Mammy’ she adored them.

Her home was her pride and joy, which she lovingly decorated each and every season.

She filled it with not only love but her needlepoint, homemade wreathes, and cherished Byer’s Choice Carolers.

Her home was never complete without a treasured Boston Terrier pup.

Ocean City, New Jersey held a special place in her heart as she spent summers with family and friends from childhood to adulthood.

The smell of salt air and the sound of waves were her calling.

Her passions were crafting, talk radio and politics.

She was the anchor to her family during joyous and uncertain times and the center of unconditional love, generosity and especially laughter.

Her escapades will be remembered at every family gathering so that she will live forever in the hearts of her family and bring them eternal love and joy.

Nancy will be lovingly remembered by all whose lives she has touched over the past eighty-eight years.
