Nancy Carter Obituary

Nancy J. Carter
December 17th, 1947 – January 17th, 2025
Remembering Grandma Nancy
On January 17, 2025 God took home his Angel Grandma Nancy.
Grandma Nancy loved being flamboyant with flowers, ribbons and bling in her hair accenting her beauti-ful blue eyes and smile. Her passion in life was to spread Gods love kindness and joy with everyone she met and served. Her career started at age 16 at a car hop picture her on roller skates. She loved being a server or hostess at Jerry's restaurant/Black bear Diner and the Golden Corral. Whatever she could do to make your meal experience the best she would make it happen. Patrons all wanted to have her as their server and children would run up to her to get a hug. A beautiful loving icon of the community.
She is survived by her daughter Leanne, David, 3 beautiful granddaughters; Shelby, Debra and Kimberly and 12 greatgrandchildren. Grandma Nancy is also survived by Brother Tommy and 2 sisters Dottie and Barbera. Our hearts are broken she will always be loved and, in our hearts, and thoughts.
She did not want a viewing and will be laid to rest in Tehachapi California.
If you like to do something in her name you can donate to Hospice of Havasu, Compassus or your favor-ite organization. Grandma Nancy's was Make a Wish.
Love always Grandma's family

I just found out about this sad news of Nancy passing in Jan. Nancy was great to work with. She knew everyone that came to Jerry´s! We did some double shift´s together when someone didn´t show up! She has a wonderful and loving family that I know are hurting right now, but she will be so missed by so many!
