Nancy was born December 20, 1938 in North Kansas City (Avondale), Missouri to Lorenzo and Leatha Plumb. She graduated from North Kansas City high school and soon found employment with TWA where she remained for over 40 years retiring in 2001 as a reservation agent. She enjoyed traveling and visiting exotic destinations such as Afghanistan, Hongkong, and Morocco, and spent many Christmas holidays in Paris. Nancy volunteered with several local organizations including Metropolitan Lutheran Ministries food pantry, Kansas City Zoo, Union Station, and Heartland Book Bank. Nancy loved dogs and owned several throughout her lifetime. A champion for our environment and animal welfare, she contributed to many organizations that provide care, shelter and public education of animals in need and groups which focus on protecting our environment.
Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, her sister Patricia Tabor, and her beloved pets.
