She was born to Ralph and Lillian Kingsrud in Fargo, North Dakota on December 19, 1940. Nancy married James, son of John and Gladys Stannard, and was a loving and devoted wife until he proceeded her in death in 2017. She graduated from the University of North Dakota and dedicated her life to nurturing, guiding, and inspiring those around her.
