Nancy Engleman Obituary
Nancy Sue (Orwig) Engleman, 82, passed away Tuesday, July 29, 2025, at her home in Columbus, with her family by her side.
Born in Tiffin, April 26, 1943, Nancy was the daughter of Daryl and Lucille (Good) Orwig. She worked in her family's business, Frosted Foods, and later at Ballreich's and Seneca County Sheriff's Office.
Nancy was known for her kind and generous heart, her unforgettable smile and laugh, and her deep love for family, friends, animals, and community. Affectionately called "Grandma Nancy" by many, she showed up for others in countless ways and was a talented seamstress who poured love into everything she created.
She is survived by her children, Juliana (Jeff) Moore of Columbus and Scott (Laura) Engleman of Sandusky; her brother, Tom (Barb) Orwig of Tiffin; and many who were blessed to know her.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Mel (Cheri) Orwig.
