Nancy Cannon

<<< Return to Memory Wall

Nancy Lou Cannon was born in Albuquerque, NM on Wednesday, September 5, 1934 and passed away in Orange, CA on November 1, 2012. She was a cherished wife, mother, grandmother and friend.

Her favorite tradition was her annual cookie decorating party with her grandchildren. She also had a great love of swans. She and her husband, Dick, spent many afternoons on the wraparound porch of their home In Washington watching the beautiful swans on the lake. She absolutely adored her two pugs, Winston and Maggie. She had a great love of reading and shared this passion with her four children and grandchildren and they have shared that love with her great grandchildren.

When her cherished husband of 50 years suffered from dementia, she insisted on caring for him herself 24/7. It took a huge toll on her, but she wouldn’t have it any other way. Sadly, shortly after he passed, it became evident that she was suffering from the onset of Alzheimer’s. After 7 painful years, it stole her from us.

She was a blessing to many, loved dearly and is greatly missed. It is our wish that she not be forgotten and we are grateful to the Fisher Center for their valiant effort’s to conquer this dreaded disease.
