Just out of high school, she began working in banks, a career in which she
would excel. From Sunnyland Bank to Jefferson Bank, Bank One, she chose
to stay at her favorite and most successful, CEFCU airport offices, for 16
years. There she was a check-processing manager with an eye toward the
success of her employer and the welfare and advancement of herself and
many who worked for her. She loved her job, and she loved her family at
CEFCU.

mutual love.

She loved to travel, was adventurous and loved seeing and trying new things.
Her job allowed her and Joe to travel some, and they saw a lot of the U.S.
scenery and cities. Jamaica was a spot Nancy and Joe visited twice, and
other numerous adventures with friends and family filled her life.
She was a dedicated member of the Eucharistic Adoration program at Holy
Family Parish, where she also made friends, young and old alike.
She was a dedicated daughter, sister, wife and a terrific mom.
After raising three sons and with three brothers, Nancy was joyous and proud
becoming a grandmother to Isabel and Grace Fleming, the girls she had
waited so long for.
Basically a simple woman with remarkable energy, Nancy loved to laugh, and
over the years shared "new" jokes with "OB," Jack, "Duck" or whomever she
could enlighten. All who knew her will remember her as a truly genuinely nice
and caring person and will miss her support and positive attitude. May God
bless her and keep her until we all meet again. Thanks to all her friends (you
know who you are) who helped her, Joe and the family get through some
difficult times. God bless you all, and God bless Nancy Jo Serpette Fleming.
A funeral Mass will be at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 10, 2011, at Holy Family
Catholic Church with the Franciscan Fathers officiating. Visitation will be
Tuesday from 4 to 7 p.m. at Wright & Salmon Mortuary. Further visitation will
be one hour prior to the Mass at the church. Burial will be in Resurrection
Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to OSF Children's
Hospital.
