Born September 11, 1936, in Spartanburg, SC, she was raised by her loving mother, Merle McKleskey and step-father, A. J. McKleskey. On October 25, 1955, she married her high school sweetheart, Charles Eugene Gibbs. Nancy retired from the offices of Evangel Cathedral in 2008. She shared the love of growing dahlias with Eugene and was a member of the Dahlia Society earning many ribbons and awards. She enjoyed church friends and activities at Evangel and later at GraceWay which is now Hope Church of Spartanburg. Nancy loved her family and especially enjoyed time spent with her two grandsons.
