Memorials are suggested to Nebraska Christian Schools, 1847 Inskip Avenue, Central City, NE 68826. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.wagnerfuneral.com. Nancy was born Nov. 23, 1955 in Norco, California to Lee and Joyce Glynn, the first of 4 children born to that union. She attended schools in Palmer, Nebraska before attending Nebraska Christian High School in Central City, Nebraska, her junior and senior years. It was at NC that Nancy heard, understood and trusted in the wonderful gospel message that offers forgiveness of sin and eternal life to anyone who will trust in Christ’s payment for sin on their behalf. Following her graduation from Nebraska Christian in 1974, Nancy attended Western Bible College in Denver, graduating in 1979 with a Bachelors of Missions Degree. That fall she was united in marriage to Kim Cook in Meeker, Colorado. Shortly before his seminary graduation, they welcomed their first daughter, Lindsey, into the family, and after pastoring churches in Colorado and Nebraska, settled in Meeker where their second daughter, Sydney, was born. There Nancy was a dedicated mother, was employed in the local abstract office, did title work for the Bureau of Land Management, and worked with the handicapped thru the Horizons organization. Perhaps because she was born in California, Nancy loved the beach, the ocean waves and sunshine. She adored her pets, and was seldom without at least one to care for. Some of her hobbies included refinishing antique oak furniture, decorating and making improvements to her home, and shopping for a really good bargain. Her twin granddaughters added great delight to her life. She was happiest when sharing time with close friends and family, and kept in touch with many through the years. She is survived by her husband Kim, daughters Lindsey Frankl, husband Tim, and twin daughters Ari and Bella of Meeker; daughter Sydney and her mother’s-approved boyfriend Eric Redland ; her mother, Joyce Glynn, and brother, Rod Glynn, both of Central City, Nebraska; a sister, Janet Corich and sons Marcus and Vance, of Morrison, Colorado; and a brother, Donn, wife Michelle and children Matthew, Tabor, Brandee and Cody, all of Clarks, Nebraska. She was preceded in death by her father, Lee Glynn. Nancy was all-things Nebraskan, a faithful Husker fan in the fall, and easily converted her husband to the “Go Big Red” faith. She was a believer in Christ because she was imperfect, a sinner just like all of us here today. But now all the imperfections have been taken away and we can envy her today because she has left all the blemishes of this life behind, while we still groan under the burden of that load until we, too, can fly away to a better life. Nancy looked forward to being with Jesus and seeing her father, as well as many friends who have gone before her and had the privilege of enjoying all that God has promised to those who call Him their Father. She hopes that you, too, will bet your soul that the death of Jesus Christ is an all-sufficient payment for your sin, and join her someday in a world unstained by the sin and sorrow which so often discolors this one.
