Nancy was born August 31, 1943, in Seneca Falls, NY, the daughter of Ralph V. and Hildegard C. Andreas Niles. She was a 1961 graduate of Mynderse Academy. Nancy was employed with various businesses in the Finger Lakes area. At 50 years old, Nancy made the decision to return to school at Marion S. Whelan School of Practical Nursing to earn her LPN diploma. She began her nursing career at FLACRA and continued her passion at Seneca ARC from which she retired. Nancy was a longtime and very active elder of the First Presbyterian Church of Waterloo; she was a member of the bell choir, helped organize the church bazaar, but one of her favorite committees was organizing the collection for the Christmas Shoeboxes drive for the International Samaritan's Purse Organization. She was also a Waterloo Rotarian for several of her working years, a recipient of the Paul Harris Award, and a member of the Jaycees alongside her husband George.

Nancy enjoyed spending her free time working in her herb and flower garden, sewing, making cards for family and friends, ceramics, reading, and cheering on the Buffalo Bills to name a few of her many hobbies. She was a 4H leader of the Sunshine Girls where she shared her joy of baking, cooking and sewing with her daughters and the other members of her 4H Club.

Her greatest joy was watching her grandchildren grow and took great pride in their many activities and accomplishments over the years. Additionally, she looked forward to their annual trips to their Florida winter home, where they enjoyed the company of many friends and church community at the Inverness Presbyterian Church.

She is survived by her husband of 61 years, George A. Poormon; children Robin (Bob) Lukowski of Seneca Falls, NY, Todd Poormon of Waterloo, NY, and Darcy (Ralph) Cafiero of Farmington, NY; grandchildren Delaney Susan Lukowski, Maria Lee Poormon, Darby Rose Lukowski, and Carmine Vincent Allen Cafiero; three sisters-in-law; many cousins, nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her parents; and brother Gary Niles.
