Born in Ephrata, Nancy was the daughter of the late Clarence M. and Ellen (Hoffman) Weik and married to her loving husband, Charles W. Bealer, for nearly 59 years until his passing in 2022.

Nancy was a graduate of Ephrata High School, class of 1960. For several years, Nancy worked in food service at the Reading Hospital. Throughout her life, Nancy had a vibrant and adventurous spirit. She had a passion for dancing, particularly jitterbug, and enjoyed going out with their many friends.

Her favorite destinations included Ocean City, MD, where she and Charlie had their own place, as well as Marco Island, FL, and the Outer Banks.
