Mrs. Nancy Sisson Crowell

Nancy Sisson Crowell (65), of Alpharetta, Georgia, passed away unexpectedly at her home on September 11, 2018. Nancy was loved by many and considered an angel on this earth by those who were fortunate enough to have experienced her compassion and infinite selfless acts of kindness. Nancy is survived by her loving husband, Alan and twin children, Breanna and Christopher as well as her brothers Allen (Deborah) and Verne (Janet), sister Debbie (Robert) Wych, sister -in-law Pat Bryant, nieces and nephews-Katie (Ryan), Becky, Brian, Aaron (Abbi), Heidi (Nate), Katlyne, Keith Bryant (Amanda), & Robyn Weindel (Rich). Nancy was preceded in death by her mother, Verna (Swain) and father Clarence Sisson. Nancy was born in Rockford, IL August 4, 1953 and grew up on the family farm in Garden Prairie, IL. Nancy was a graduate of Belvidere High School in Belvidere, IL & Iowa State University in Ames, IA. After graduation, Nancy worked for ARA Food Services at Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago, IL before moving to Akron, OH, as a Registered Dietitian at Akron City Hospital where she met her husband-to-be, Alan Crowell. As a couple, they shared deep love for one another, traveled the world, and in thirty-five years, never had an argument. In 1998, Nancy and her family moved to Milton, GA, where she became very involved in Christopher and Breanna’s school, sports and social activities. She was an incredible and devoted mother who loved to be a part of every aspect of her children’s lives, and always emphasized the value of education saying that “education is one thing that nobody can ever take away from you.” Nancy’s family and her faith in Jesus Christ were the two most important things in life. She never missed a day of reading her Bible and, as a member of Alpharetta Presbyterian Church, she participated in Bible studies, the Whiz Kids Program, Lydia Circle and various other women’s and family ministry programs. Outside of the church, she also tutored her young neighbor, Ella, several times a week after school. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 11:00am on Tuesday, September 18 at Nancy’s beloved Alpharetta Presbyterian Church. A private internment ceremony will be held for family members and invited guests. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Alpharetta Presbyterian Church Memorial Fund in honor of Nancy S. Crowell.
