Nancy grew up on a farm and enjoyed raising animals, especially sheep. In her younger years, she was active in 4H.

A faithful member of Westminster Presbyterian Church in Rock Hill, Nancy served on the missions committee and was active in various other capacities. She worked for Atomic Industrial Forum of NYC and Washington, DC for 25 years, which afforded her the ability to travel around the world. After relocating to SC, Nancy worked for Babcock and Wilcox in Charlotte and retired from Ackerman Law Firm after many years of dedicated service. Her infectious smile and wonderful sense of humor will be truly missed.
She leaves to cherish her memory her loving and devoted husband of 12 years, Martin “Marty” Dickinson; step-children, Jason Christopher Dickinson of NC and Lindsay Key Dickinson of KY; niece, Lisa Harry and husband, James of Gillette, WY; nephews, Michael Dunham and wife, Marianne of West Chester, OH and David Dunham of Seattle, WA; great-nieces, Kelly Harry and Allison Dunham; great-nephew, Drew Dunham; uncle, Arnold Fisher; and four cousins.
