Nancy Jeanne Nelson

~ In loving memory ~

Nancy Nelson of Victoria, BC passed away on December 14, 2023.

She is predeceased by her parents, her brother, and her son, Michael. She is survived by her daughter, Rosalie.

Nancy was a lifelong lover of literature and art. She could be found with her nose in a book or dabbling with various mediums, from paints to needlepoint, throughout the years.

A special thank you to the countless healthcare professionals at the Victoria BC Cancer Clinic, the Royal Jubilee Hospital, and Palliative Home & Community Care. The attention and care shown to Nancy during her diagnosis, treatments, and end-of-life support were greatly appreciated by Nancy and her family.

As a lover of literature, poems, and quotes, the following is a quote Nancy had written in her daytimer while she was going through cancer treatment…

"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love."

– Marcus Aurelius
