IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Nancy
Heath
February 6, 1933 – November 4, 2024
Mrs. Nancy Sue Neely Heath, 91, of Holcomb, passed away Monday, November 4, 2024 at her residence. She was born February 6, 1933 in Carroll County to Leland Gray, Sr. and Fannie Sue Saban Neely. Nancy worked for a number of years as a Medical Lab Technician, but was happiest working as a devoted homemaker. An excellent cook, she found joy in cooking for her loved ones and was an excellent seamstress. Most of all, she was a loving, caring mother to her family. She will be lovingly remembered for her devotion and sacrificial service to all of us. Nancy was a member of the Sparta Methodist Church and was formerly a longtime member of the First United Methodist Church in Columbus.
Funeral services will be held at 2:00 PM Wednesday, November 13, 2024 at the Sparta Methodist Church with Rev. David McGowin and Rev. Janie Mortimer officiating. Interment will follow in the church cemetery. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service Wednesday at the church.
Survivors include two daughters, Susan Heath McGilvra(Paul) of Holcomb and Ann Heath Hester(Stacy) of Brandon; four granddaughters, Jennifer Anderson, Lauren Garriga, Neely Kelley and Emily Chamblee; nine great-grandchildren, Olivia Ball, Carson Ball, Grayson Garriga, Anna Peyton Garriga, Pierce Garriga, Caroline Kelley, Collins Kelley, Mills Chamblee and Mary Leighton Chamblee; brother-in-law, Bruce Heath of Jefferson and a host of nieces and nephews.
Nancy is preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Newton Earl Heath and a brother, Leland Gray Neely, Jr.
Jamie Anderson, Adam Chamblee, Brandon Garriga, Holland Heath, Cody Kelley, Lee Neely and Larry Tate will honor Nancy by serving as pallbearers and carry her to rest in the Sparta Cemetery.
We extend our greatest appreciation to Adoration Home Health and Hospice, Michelle Johnson, Liz Blanch and Martha Mister for their loving care during the last days of Nancy's life.
