Nancy was known by many names, wife, mom, little sister, nanny, and goat. The one name she was most proud of was mawmaw. She was so proud of her 13 grandchildren and her love, selflessness, and compassion towards her grandchildren will be remembered indefinitely. Nancy was a passionate euchre player, an excellent baker (if you were lucky enough to try her peanut butter cake, you can confirm this), and loved attending Jug Rox sporting events.
She is survived by her husband, Gary; children, Joshua (Sarah) Sexton, James (Sarah) Sexton, Brittney (Kevin) Fuhrman, and Ethan Sexton; 13 grandchildren, Carly Rader, Ikia Wright, Michael Sexton, Elly Rader, Tristan Burks, Jacey Sexton, Evelyn Fuhrman, Lyla Sexton, Mason McShane, Oliver Fuhrman, Norah McShane, Judd Fuhrman, and Charlotte Sexton; mother-in-law, Minnie Ellen Baker; sister, Trish (Dale) Boyd; brother, Jimmy (Elizabeth) Cundiff; sisters-in-law, Donna Cundiff and Lisa Baker; brother-in-law, Jeff (Nina) Sexton; and several nieces and nephews.
