Nancy passed away peacefully on June 20 at her son’s home with her son, daughter and oldest granddaughter by her side.

Nancy was 87 years old, born on March 1, 1923 in Malden, Mass., to Jackson Livingston and Irene Francis Bomma Cannel. She had two sisters and one brother. She met her husband Walter in 1941 and the couple was married on Nov. 19, 1942. Their first child Dianne was born Sept. 25, 1943.

In 1946 the young family moved to Eagle Rock, Calif. There they had three more children: Jacque, Barbra and Scott. Nancy and Walt were very involved with St. Barnabus Episcopal Church in Eagle Rock and were members of Las Vacinas for over 50 years. In 1970 Nancy and Walt moved to Rancho Palos Verdes. After Walt’s death in 1995, Nancy moved several times to be closer to her children. Since December 2008 she has been a resident of Mountview Retirement community.

She is survived by her daughter Barbra (Danny), son Scott (Kathy), son-in-law Neil (Dianne), 21 grandchildren, 19 great grandchildren, sister Leone and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
