She also leaves one brother, Tom “Butch” Marchetti and his wife Jenny, Casaic, Calif.

She was born and raised in California and moved her family to Texas where she lived for the last forty-two years. She was the selfless caretaker of her daughter with special needs until her death in 2004, a formidable opponent in frequent political disagreements with anyone who cared to debate, a colorful storyteller and wholly dedicated to her family.  Friends and family celebrate the memory and eternal life of Nancy, for our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, Philippians 3:20 (NKJV).  In lieu of flowers please make donations to Autism Speaks https://www.autismspeaks.org/ or NBIA disorders http://www.nbiadisorders.org/.

A graveside service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Friday, June 3, 2016  at Plano Mutual Cemetery, 18th St, Plano.
