Nancy Lou Shatney

On May 6, 1963, she married Reginald W. Shatney Sr. at the United Methodist Church in Wolcott. Together they raised four children.

In her earlier years, Nancy stayed at home to care for her young family. When her children entered school, she entered the workforce. She was employed by the Mountain Road Resort in Stowe for 36 years, retiring in 2006.

Nancy was a past member of the West Glover Methodist Church and a choir member of that church. She loved the time she spent with her family, especially with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She enjoyed her cats — Stella, TT, Lucky and Colbey. They were always near and dear to her heart. She also enjoyed playing cards, reading, crocheting, flower gardening and baking. She will be remembered as a funny, loving lady with a feisty attitude.

Survivors include four children, Pamela Peck and her fiancé, Cody, of Wolcott; Laurie Cochran of Wolcott; Reginald Shatney Jr. and his wife, Tracey, of Albany; and Penny Shatney and Brian of Wolcott; a brother, Judson Stevens of Phoenix, Ariz.; grandchildren, Allen Peck, Chris Peck and Mandy, Tanya, David Cochran Jr. and Donna, Tony Cochran and Trisha, Matt Peck and Alicia, Stephanie Cook, Jen Mayhew and Cody, Tyler Shackett, Dylan Mayhew, Malisa, Emily Peck and Noah, Kyle Shackett, Michael Shatney and Kayla, Reggie Shatney and Sierra; great-grandchildren Landon, Iziaha, Erin, Noah, Brayton, Troy, Adaline, Raevyn, Bentley R., Daemyan, Isabelle, Payton, Bentley M., Soray, Sadie, Madison, Xavier and Connor; two ex-sons-in-law, Marty Mayhew and Ernie Peck; as well as nieces and nephews.
