Nancy King

On Monday, May 13, 2024, Nancy King, 86 of Lyman, NH, passed away peacefully after a long battle with dementia and other health issues.

Nancy attended high school in both Lisbon, NH and Enfield, CT. She married Jerrold King in June of 1958 and settled in northern New Hampshire to raise their family.

After working at the Littleton Coin Company for over 30 years, Nancy retired and spent the remainder of her retirement between her home in Lyman, NH and visiting her children in Las Vegas, NV and Concord, CA.

Nancy enjoyed travelling with her late husband, painting, gardening, going to yard sales, antiquing, and attempting countless DIY projects around the house. You could also find her travelling to casinos and gambling with family and friends.

Anyone who knew Nancy can attest that her greatest joy was being with her family. She adored her children, grandchildren, and more recently, her great grandchildren, all of which stole her heart the most. She attended countless family gatherings, basketball games, school plays, graduations, weddings, and births. No matter which person she was supporting, she beamed with pride.

In her later years, she spent her remaining life with the staff and residents of the Morrison Nursing Home in Whitefield, NH. The family thanks them endlessly for their patience, support, and communication during her time there. Special thanks to the Nursing Manager and family friend, Holly Davis, for her assistance and grace.

Nancy was predeceased by her husband of 49 years, Jerrold King, sister, Charlotte Mitchell of Woodsville, NH, brother, Harry Sherman of Chazy, NY, sister-in-law, Phyllis Sherman of Chazy, NY, and nephew, David Sherman of Rouses Point, NY.
