Nancy was born in Chicago, Illinois on March 10, 1934 to George and Beatrice (nee Davey) Anderson. She met her husband-to-be, Glenn Swearingen at college and they soon married. After spending several married years in the city, Glenn & Nancy moved to Elk Grove Village in 1960.
When Glenn passed in 1990, Nancy then found solace and her calling in serving others through Willow Creek Community Church in South Barrington. She worked for the Single Adult Ministry where she planned and put on spectacular events for the next 25+ years!
Throughout that time she touched the hearts and lives of many people that were involved with the ministry and made many friends along the way. She made it her mission in life to make sure everyone around her felt special and loved, and she succeeded!
A private service will be held at Acacia Park Cemetery in Norridge,IL. In lieu of flowers, if you would like to make a donation please do so in Nancy’s name to: IN OUR BACKYARD http://inourbackyard.org/donate, a nonprofit organization that fights against human trafficking.
