Obituary

Nancy L. Bailey, 87, Overland Park, Kansas, formerly of Confluence, entered the presence of the Lord on Friday, May 17, 2019. Nancy was born September 21, 1931 in Confluence, a daughter of Darrell and Dorothy Lingenfield. She spent her formative years in Confluence surrounded by a large extended family and attended local schools. She graduated from Confluence High School and was recognized as the valedictorian of her class. During her adult life, she worked at Black's Dry Goods Store which eventually led her to a long and successful career with the J.C. Penney Co. In addition to her work, Nancy single-handedly raised her beloved daughter and cared for her mother during her mother's extended illness. She enjoyed Tai Chi and other activities in her pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. In her retirement years, Nancy enjoyed reading, working in her yard, working crossword puzzles and spending time with her family. She loved her computer, checking her email daily, staying up to date with current events and was always ready to learn new things. She was highly intelligent, a very wise decision maker and a dedicated and determined individual who led an independent and successful life until her passing. She is survived by her daughter, Nancy Lee Holz and four grandchildren – Alicia Stremick (Cj), Douglas Holz (Metra), Jeffrey Holz and Lindsey Holz. She is also survived by seven great grandchildren, Fisher and Mallory Stremick, Sophia, Aiden and Logan Holz and Mckenna and Brooklyn Holz-Estrada. Additionally, she is survived by one sister, Sandy Satterfield, one nephew, Darrell Lingenfield III (Ellen) and three nieces, Ann Banks, Wanda Wilson and Gerri Kay Layton. She was predeceased by her parents, a sister, Pauline Franklin and a brother, Darrell Lingenfield II. In the words of Fred Bauer in his tribute to Helen Steiner Rice, "She was different, she was special, unique in a thousand ways; she was giving, she was loving and we'll miss her all our days." So it is, we will miss the wonderful and unique person that Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma and Nancy was to each of us in so many ways. A celebration of her life was held on Tuesday, July 16, 2019 at the Breakpointe Community Church in Overland Park. A graveside service will be held on Friday, July 19, 2019 at 11 AM in the Ursina Cemetery in Ursina, PA.
