Nancy Paxton Deem was born on June 16, 1944 in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania.  She died August 15, 2022 at an Atrium Health facility in Charlotte, NC.
 
She was one of six children born to the late Robert Newton Paxton and Anna Margaret McPeak Paxton.  The family moved to Vienna, West Virginia in the 1950’s.  Nancy called this home for most of her life.  Later in life she moved to the Charlotte, North Carolina area to be with her daughters and grandchildren.
