Nancy Carolyn Stone

Obituary is from the Hogg Funeral Home & Crematory (Hayes, Va.) website, posted June 1, 2022: Nancy Carolyn Stone, age 81 of Gloucester, went home to be with her Heavenly Father on Monday, May 30, 2022. Nancy was born on August 19, 1940, in Durham, North Carolina to the late Joseph and Maggie Evans Coates. Carolyn lived in Gloucester County for many years, was a member of Union Baptist Church, and retired from Newport News Ship Building. She loved going to the ocean with her girls and watching people on the boardwalk. However, her true passion was being a part of the grandchildren's school and sports events; we knew she was there because of yelling at the umpires and referees when she did not agree with their call. Nanny was the coach, umpire, referee, base coach, team supporter, and the biggest fan all in one for all of us. She was our family prayer warrior and taught us what having faith and trust in our Savior was all about. Even in her final days, she made sure to pray with us and stress how important it was to give our lives to God. She was the happiest spending time with her family, especially the children. In addition to her parents, a sister Jeannette Cox preceded her in death. She is survived by 2 daughters, Vickie Hall (Rickey), and Karen Harvey (Barry), 5 grandchildren Deserie (John), Samuel (April), Rickey, Megan (Bryan), Nikki, 6 great-grandchildren Kirk, Mathew, Bayleigh, Logan, Mason, and Isaiah. A graveside service, officiated by Pastor Kevin Thompson, will be held on Thursday, June 2, 2022, at 11:00 am in Rosewell Memorial Gardens Cemetery. In memory of Nancy, memorial contributions may be made to a charity of your choice. We will dearly miss her and forever be eternally grateful for all she has done. Services under the direction of Hogg Funeral Home. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nancy married Wayne Lew Stone on February 14, 1982 in Hayes, Gloucester County, Va.
