Nancy Kenyon OBITUARY

Nancy Kenyon, of Greenwood Village, Colorado, was born on March 8,1930 in Seattle, Washington. She passed away on March 31, 2025, at the age of 95.

Nancy is preceded in death by her husband Bob, eldest son David, parents Edward and Lois, sister Mary, and brother Jack. She is survived by her son Craig, daughters Kim and Kristina, daughter-in-law Rosemary, six grandchildren and two great grandchildren.

Born and raised in Seattle, she had a love for music, playing the violin from an early age. She graduated from Lincoln High in 1948, followed by a year at Whitman College. After working as a medical secretary, she moved to Denver, where she met her future husband, Bob, marrying in 1955.

Nancy and Bob raised four children, settling in their home in Greenwood Village in 1971. Nancy went back to college while caring for her family, earning her BA in English from CU Denver, graduating Phi Beta Kappa. She taught English to ESL students in Douglas County for several years, volunteered at Bethesda Hospital community garden, and was a member of the Great Books Club at Bemis Library. Nancy was an avid reader and gardener, and she loved spending time with her family.

There will be a small, private outdoor service in late spring. We will miss her wit and humor, her sense of curiosity and love for learning, her deep intellect and generous spirt, and the magic she created in her beautiful gardens.
