1940 - 2015
 Nancy Louise Sheffield Garvin, 74, of Barboursville, West Virginia, went home to be with the Lord on September 2, 2015 at Hospice House of Huntington after battling a long illness. She was born November 25, 1940 in Northfork, West Virginia to Hazel Wright Sheffield and Henry Sheffield. She is preceded in death by her mother Hazel Wright Sheffield and her father Henry Sheffield. Nancy leaves behind her beloved husband & best friend of 51 years Bobby James Garvin (Bob) of Barboursville, her son James Andrew Garvin (Andy) of Barboursville, daughter-in-law Tami Lynne McComas Garvin of Barboursville, her favorite grandson James Matthew Garvin of Barboursville, step daughter Theresa Crump and her husband Roger Crump.

Nancy was a graduate of Saint Mary’s School of Nursing and received the Spirit of Nursing award. She worked at St Mary’s as a pediatric nurse before beginning her carrier as a wonderful full time dedicated wife, homemaker and mother. The family wishes to thank Lewis Memorial Baptist Church, the pastoral staff, and all the many visitors and prayers that were lifted up during this difficult time. A special thank you needs to go out to Pastor David Lemming for the countless times spent in prayer and counseling with the family and for the special time spent with the family during her last hours. Nancy Garvin, Honey, Mom, you will truly be missed. Life will not be the same without your loving kindness and thoughtfulness for others. We look forward to the day when we will be united again through Christ.

Dear Bob, Andy, Tami and Matthew,
I am not sure if I will find a ride so that I can come to the viewing or funeral. I am sending many HUGS your way. I am deeply sorry for your loss and my heart aches for you. Nancy was a special lady, I always enjoyed our conversations together and enjoyed the friendship that was shown to me. Each of you are very special in my heart and I will be praying for you all. My life verse is Romans 8:28----And we know that ALL things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to HIS purpose. Nancy was a wonderful Christian Lady and I'm so glad that my circle of life included each of you. My love and prayers are with you all.

Our thoughts, prayers,& love go out to my dear Daddy, Andy, Mattie, & Tami. Nancy was one of the best Step-Mom's I could have asked for. She was a sweet, loving lady and always made Roger & I feel welcome in your home. She will be missed and thought of daily. I have been lucky to have two "Moms" in this life and now they both are gone. I look forward to the day I will see them again...God Bless you all!
