Passed away peacefully on Wednesday February 28, 2024, in her 96th year, surrounded by her family at Juravinski Hospital in Hamilton.
Beloved wife of the late Jerry William Millson (1990). Dear mother of the late Ruth Ellen Geertsma (Oeds), James Edward Millson (Gladys), and Patricia Jane Roy (Wilfred).

Nancy was proud to be trained and graduate as a Registered Nurse at Toronto Western Hospital. She met her husband Dr. Jerry Millson during her time there. She later joined her husband at his medical practice as his nurse and medical secretary, after staying home to raise their children. After her husband's passing, when Nancy was 62, she studied for and achieved her driver's license. Nancy continued to stay active, living on her own in her home in Toronto until she was 92. She enjoyed volunteering at Toronto Western Hospital until the age of 91, when the COVID pandemic lockdowns ended her participation there. She was very proud of her entire family and greatly cherished her time with them.
