Nancy Renee (Collins) Leslie passed away April 19th with her family by her side. Born in Eau Claire Wi. on 11/12/1959 to parents Jack and Opal Collins. Nancy is survived by her children Anna, Frank, Rachel (Blake), John Michael (Becca), grandchildren Johnathan, Christian, Benjamin, and great grandson Roman, siblings John (Sharon) and Theresa (Bob). Nancy joins her parents Jack and Opal and brothers Timothy and Michael  in heaven.

Nancy loved to laugh and enjoyed the simple things in life, bingo, games, heartfelt videos of animals, and music. She taught herself how to play multiple instruments, wrote songs and had a beautiful voice.

Nancy was kind, earnest, joyful, humble, artistic, funny, brave, gracious, forgiving, thoughtful, and spiritual. She was an amazing mother, beloved sister, and friend to many. She loved the Lord, and had an unwavering faith.

She had a long battle with cancer and often said she felt it was harder on us than it was her. She had more concern for our grief than her own suffering.

To know her was to love her. To be loved by her was the greatest gift of all.

A celebration of her life will be held on July 18th. More details to follow.
