Nancy was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She was Pat’s right-hand woman, supporting him and their sons, Doug and Greg, as they started their transportation business, Murray & Sons Transportation. Nancy worked for several years at the Cuba City Hospital. Her main priority was raising her children, and then helping raise her grandchildren. She loved attending their events and shopping with them for the latest fashions. Nancy was an avid baseball fan because of Kendall, and she enjoyed the Milwaukee Brewers. Together, Nancy and Pat took great pleasure in decorating for Christmas and this endeavor became an annual family event. They also loved spending time with their close friends, Don and Alberta McCabe.
Survivors include her children, Vicki (Al) Bolz, Necedah, WI, Greg (Chris) Murray, Monroe, WI, Tim (Kris) Murray, Waunakee, WI, and Fern (Doran) Steiner, Monroe, WI; 12 grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; and two great-great- grandchildren.
She was also preceded in death by her parents; two sons, Kendall Murray and Doug Murray; and a sister, Lois Jean (Robert) Kuhls.
The family wishes to thank the staffs of Vista West of Madison and Brighton Hospice for their care of Nancy.
