She was born June 15, 1947, in Monroe, Michigan to Edward and Laura (Gardner) Finley. She married the love of her life, Paul Price November 11, 1967, and he survives.
Nancy was loved by so many in the Walton community. She was the town babysitter, taking care of over 300 children in the Walton area over many years. She loved cooking for her family and friends and was affectionally know to some as Nanny Noodle. She loved baking cookies for the Lewis Cass Cross Country Team. Nancy and Paul were the proud sponsors of the Lewis Cass Cross Country banquet every year. The Cross Country team would sometimes make their way to Nancy and Paul’s during a practice run just to visit for a minute or have a cookie or two. Nancy and Paul were a fixture for many sporting events for the Lewis Cass sports teams for many years.
She is survived by her loving husband Paul, and children, Kendra (Dale) Sleppy of New Palestine, Indiana, Jeff (Tracey) Price of Peru, Indiana, James Price of Walton, Indiana and Allison (James Pericaud) Price of Debary, Florida. Surviving grandchildren include, Bryson and Bailey Sleppy, Reed (Casey) Price, Lydia Judy, Alexandria (Dalton) McDougle, Jameson Price and Carlin Price. Nancy is also blessed with three great grandchildren, Dallas Price, Nala McDougle and Kylen McDougle. One brother also survives, David Finley of Kissimmee, Florida.
