Nancy Inez Pawlik


NANCY INEZ RAPP PAWLIK OAKHURST, Calif. - Nancy Inez Rapp Pawlik passed away Monday, April 2, 2007, after a long and painful battle with Lou Gehrig's disease. God saw fit to take his daughter Nancy home to heaven. Born June 11, 1946, the daughter of Dan and Edna (Rittmeyer) Rapp. She was a graduate of Durand High School. Nancy was such a gift and talent to all. Whether it was in her career as an aero-tech office manger, raising and sacrificing for her three children, being a great neighbor, devoting herself to her husband, helping in community efforts, being a loving sister to her blood brothers and sisters or serving her Lord in church. We all shall miss her beautiful face, smile, laughter, genius, kindred spirit and the grace of being in her presence. Her truest desire was that each and every one of us will be reunited in the eternal joy and glory of God's kingdom. Her favorite bible verse was and still is John 11:25, "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and life; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live." Nancy is survived by her husband and caretaker, John; her children, Guy, Troy and Amy, with their respective families; five grandchildren; her brothers and sisters, Gary (Connie) Rapp, Dennis (Sue) Rapp, Bobbi "Roberta" (Jim) Montgomery, Doris (Bob) Akin and their respective families. Preceded in death by both parents; and her sister, Judy Dorney. A private funeral was April 7, 2007. Memorial service will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 28, in Sierra Vista Presbyterian Church, 39696 Highway 41, Oakhurst, CA 93644. It was Nancy's request that in lieu of flowers, donations be sent to your local A.L.S Association on her behalf and others with this disease. For more information call 559-683-6742.
