Nancy Jan Williams, age 86, La Cygne, Kan., passed away Friday, Feb. 25, 2022. She was born on Aug. 17, 1935, in Marshalltown, Iowa, the daughter of George Emmon and Viola Ann Evans Mingel. She was a graduate of Parsons High School. She was united in marriage to Gerald “Skip” Williams on April 7, 1966.

Nancy enjoyed gardening, arts and crafts, and baking. She was an accomplished home decorator. She had many opportunities to decorate her home, as she had a garage sale about every two years, so

she could redecorate much to Skip’s dismay. Nancy also enjoyed taking the kids to Chicken Annie’s,

watching their ball games and telling them stories.

She was preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her husband, Skip; two sons, Tony Williams and Todd

Williams and wife Tracy; two sisters, Dixie Aldridge and Mary Lou Kounter; five grandchildren, Rocky,

Kelly, Dane, Jena and Payton; and two great-grandchildren.

Funeral service will be 2 p.m. Wednesday, March 2, 2022, at the Schneider Funeral Home

and Crematory, La Cygne Chapel, with burial in the Oak Lawn Cemetery. Visitation will be held from 1 p.m. to service time at the chapel. Online condolences can be left at
