Nancy was born to the late Horace and Ruby Piper Gill on April 11, 1955 in Clinton, KY, and delivered by the late UK Basketball physician, Dr. Jackson. His nurse said that Nancy was the prettiest baby she had ever seen.

Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, Horace and Ruby Piper Gill; two brothers: Joey Dan Gill, and Byron Gill, both of Gage, KY.

She later owned and operated Nancy’s Country Notions where she painted and sold ceramics and silk flower arrangements. Nancy was a member of Maxon Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in West Paducah, where she also taught Sunday School and enjoyed hosting parties for the youth. Through the years she sang special music there with her beautiful voice.
