      Nancy was born in St. Johns, Michigan on March 22, 1967, the daughter of Richard David and Doris Marie (Thelen) Andrews. She graduated from St. Johns High School with the class of 1985, then went on to work in administration with the State of Michigan for many years.
     Nancy dedicated a lot of her time to crafting and helping others, especially with the Salvation Army in the winter time. She loved walking her dog, Baby, around the neighborhood. She was always known to serenade others with GIFs and Emojis on special occasions. Making people feel good was what Nancy was best at. Most of all, she held her son and grandson very close to her heart, and always cherished their visits from out of state.
      She is survived by her son Sean (Kati Whitson) Wood; her siblings: Kenneth (Karen) Andrews, Shirley Clark (Greg Pickerel), Gary (Debra) Andrews, Donald Andrews (Kerry Lund), Linda Cremer, Karen Wood, and Sharon (Kevin) Conley. Nancy is also survived by her grandson Adin Schnell, aunt Loretta (Jerry) Halm, uncle Francis (Jeanette) Thelen, uncle Stanley Thelen, uncle Jules Poirier, and many cousins, nieces, and nephews. Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, brother Ronald Andrews, nephew Nicholas Cremer, niece Meggie Andrews, and great-niece Allison Andrews.
