Life Story for Nancy Claire Kennington Riche

Nancy Claire  Kennington Riche
Memorial services for Mrs. Nancy Claire Kennington Riche will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, October 4, 2017 in the Chapel of Gallagher Funeral Home, Ball, Louisiana, with Father John Wiltse officiating.

Mrs. Riche, age 85, of Alexandria, Louisiana, entered eternal rest on Wednesday, September 27, 2017 at Matthews Memorial Health Care Center in Alexandria, Louisiana.

Mrs. Riche was a loving mother and grandmother who was deeply loved by her family. Nancy spent most of her life working as a secretary and bookkeeper. When she wasn’t working, she enjoyed sewing and cooking. Her talent and skill were self-taught at a young age and she certainly mastered them. Nancy became a TRUE Tigers fan many years ago! She never missed watching a game. Dressed from head to toe in purple and gold, Nancy loved cheering the Tigers on to victory. She knew every player, their number, and their stats. Nancy loved music and she loved to dance, and this love has been passed down through generations. Her smile and her dimples could light up a room and her vibrancy and memory will always be remembered.

Mrs. Riche is survived by her daughters, Debra Swasey of Alexandria, and Nancy Crow (Jay) of Chapel Hill, North Carolina; son, Steve Kennington (DeeDee) of Magnolia, Texas; sister, Bonnie Novak of Kalamazoo, Michigan; brothers, Bob Descant (Linda) of Alexandria, and Mark Descant (Liz) of Leesville; grandchildren, Trey Robinson, Kristin David, K.C. Distefano (David), Justin Kennington, Thomas David (Natalie), Leslie Kennington, and Adam Crow; and 7 great grandchildren.

Friends may visit on Wednesday, October 4, 2017 at Gallagher Funeral Home, Ball, Louisiana from 10:00 a.m. until service time at 11:00 a.m.
