Obituary -- Troy Nance
Troy Nance

Troy Nance passed away at his home on February 7, 2022, surrounded by love.

He was born in Ripley, Mississippi on November 20, 1948, to Betty Bateman Nance and Mack ”Leon” Nance. He was one of nine children.

Troy was a fierce protector of the family he loved. He enjoyed fishing, boating, laughing, hard work, and his dogs. But most of all, spending time with his family. He will be greatly missed.

Troy was preceded in death by his parents and five siblings; Pat, Doy, Billy, Steve, and Ruth Card; and his daughter Robin Nance.

He is survived by his longtime partner, Cheryl; his step-children Alex Hettinger (TJ); Lea Pope (Chris); children, Chris Nance and Jody Wreyford; siblings, Marie Moring, Brenda Burns, twin brother, Roy Nance; grandchildren, Katie, Rylee, Charlie, Chad, and numerous nieces and nephews.

At Troy’s request, there will be no services. At a later date, we will celebrate his life.

Arrangements are under the direction of The Gardens Funeral Home, 2949 Austin Highway Fallon, NV 89406, phone 775 423-8928.

Comment author: Patti Cole Comment text: Marie will be forever treasured in memories. The memories remain of a soft-spoken, seemingly unassuming but determined individual who absolutely knew what path she wanted to take in life, and followed it. Her instinctive reactions, which highlighted her steadfast level of love and caring for her family, friends and all living things found in nature, hold lessons for us all. An unexpected splash of her self-deprecating humor, coupled with uncanny timing, will always bring a smile. For me, Marie lives on in the sighting of a Black-crowned night heron in the tules, the bloom of a beautiful spring flower and, most poetically, in the struggle of wildlife photographers handling their very large camera lenses.

Her dad Ted was my dad's brother. I never knew Ted or Betty, but I wish I did. I am 73 and live in IL. I am building my family tree and see where Betty has fit in. Blessings to you Curt and family.
