Nancy C. Huff, 85 years, of Orefield, PA passed away January 22, 2016 at home surrounded by her loving family. She was the wife of Robert H. Huff for 65 years. Born in Stamford, CT she was the daughter of the late Gerald and Esther (Chittenden) Hays.
Nancy and Rob settled in Huntington in 1953 where they built their home and raised their family. Once the children were raised they relocated to Worthington, MA. When Rob retired they moved to Wilmington, NC because of Nancy's love of the ocean. As Nancy and Rob aged they decided to move closer to family and landed in Orefield, PA. In addition to a loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, and sister, Nancy had many interests including baking, gardening, painting, crocheting, and sewing. She was a perfectionist at everything she did. Nancy's sense of humor always made you laugh and you couldn't help but smile when she entered the room. Nancy belonged to the Norwich Hill CB's (a Community Benefit Organization) where she participated in many theatrical performances at the North Hall. She and Rob would host the after production celebrations at their Tucker Road home. Nancy was an active member of the Norwich Hill First Congregational Church where she also sang in the choir.
