Nancy Jean Harper, 86, of Kenosha Wisconsin, passed away on October 17th, 2021 at Froedtert South Kenosha. She was born on February 2nd, 1935 in Kenosha Wisconsin, the daughter of Roy and Helen (Brankow) Harper.
She was employed at The Book Binery on 52nd for several years, and then worked for the Government at Veterans Hospital in North Chicago for over 20 years in food service.
Nancy was truly a wonderful woman. She loved her family and put all of them first, even before herself. She was always the first person to be there when one of us needed help. She especially loved spending time with the little ones in her life. She never missed any games and still enjoyed watching Gary play softball every Monday. She enjoyed parks and other festivities, to see joy on the kids’ faces, nothing would hold her back from enjoying life, she loved life. We are all going to miss her so very much.
Surviving is her daughter, Debra Allen; grandchildren, Miranda Schlitz, Thomas and Samantha Brothen, and Steven Allen; great grandchildren, Gary and Mikayla Petersen, Cody Smith, Jacob and Zachary Brothen, Jordan and Mariah Zaionc, and Jocelyn Schlitz; great great grandson Ryker Petersen; her sister Dorothy Harper; and she will be greatly missed by her lifelong partner.
Nancy is proceeded in death by her parents, 7 brother and 2 sisters.
A memorial will be held on November 7th, 2021 at The Fireside Restaurant and Lounge (2801 30th Avenue Kenosha WI 53144) from 12:00pm to 3:00pm. We hope to see family and friends join us to honor her memory.

Dear Aunt Dorothy and Cousin Debbie,
Please accept my sincerest condolences on the loss of Aunt Nancy. She was indeed a very dear person and will be remembered lovingly.
What a wonderfully full life, with so many great-grandchildren!
You are both in my thoughts. Although I will not be able to attend the memorial service on November 7th, I may be in Kenosha after Xmas and, perhaps, we can get together at that time.
Much love, always,
Cousin Jim
