Nanette was born August 1st, 1951 to Marcus and Marian Fredrickson in New Ulm, Mn.

She graduated from Winthrop High School in 1969. She continued her education by acquiring her LPN. She married Gary Quade in 1972 and together they had one son, Eric. They later divorced. She went on then to earn her RN, Bachelors and Masters Degree in Nursing. She worked at various hospitals in the Twin Cities and finished her career at the Frauenshuh Cancer Center in St. Louis Park, as a manager of medical oncology and infusion. Nan was instrumental in setting up several outreach centers for the Frauenshuh Center.

She loved traveling to various countries and in the U.S.A., playing Mexican Train Dominoes with her family, and absolutely loved her dogs. Nan was also known to pull a prank now and then to keep life interesting. Most of all, Nan loved her family and friends. She was known as being a kind and gentle soul to all.

She is survived by her son Eric, brothers Bruce (LaVonne) of Pearl Lake MN, James (Midge) of LaFayette MN, five nephews and one niece.

The family would like to thank Pat Miller and all the wonderful nurses and hospice along with Doctor Mark Wilkowski for all their help in the last days of her life. A special thanks to her cousin Lola Jane Ermisch of Michigan, for her love, support and nursing skills as she spent the final month here caring for Nan.

Memorials are preferred to the Frauenshuh Cancer Center or the Tri-County Humane Society.
