Nancy Kathryne Thompson's Obituary
Nancy Kathryn Thompson went to be with her Lord and Savior on April 9, 2020.
Nancy was born on November 28, 1934 in Tulsa, Oklahoma and was preceded in death by her loving husband of 58 years, James Lee Thompson.
Nancy lived a full life as a wonderful mother, homemaker and worked in several banks in the Tulsa area. Nancy loved spending time with her family and would often host holiday celebrations in her home so that she could make memories with those she loved.
Nancy and James were committed to serving their Lord and church family at Central Church of the Nazarene where Nancy taught Sunday school, served as a district representative, and missions president. In her leisure time, Nancy enjoyed traveling with her husband, James, both abroad and here in the United States.
Nancy was a much-loved mother who instilled in her son’s strong Christian values that have served them well. She is survived by her three children: Jim of San Diego, California, Tim and wife, Lori, of Broken Arrow, OK, and Rodney and wife, Carol, of Sierra Madre, CA. Nancy is also survived by her siblings Charles Buckmaster, Shirley Edmonson, and Gary Buckmaster. She will be remembered by her many nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.
Nancy will be greatly missed and forever in our hearts. We are thankful for the promise and hope we have through Jesus Christ. John 11:25-26 says “…I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.”
As we are currently unable to gather together physically, we have created this space for Nancy’s family and friends to leave tributes, stories, photos, etc. A celebration of Nancy’s life will be held at a later date.
