BENTONVILLE - Nancy Lynn Graham, 81, of Bentonville, Ark., passed away Saturday, Jan. 19, 2019. She was born April 20, 1937, in Avon Park, Fla., to Harry "Mac" McFerrin and Susie Q (Lynn) McFerrin.
Nancy moved to Coffeyville, Kan., where she attended high school, Coffeyville Junior College and one year at Emporia Presbyterian College.
While living in Coffeyville, she met Bob Graham. They married Feb. 8, 1958, and began their family. After Dad retired, they moved to Tulsa, Okla., in 1988, where they attended Victory Christian Church. In 1994, they moved to Bentonville, Ark., to be closer to Nancy's parents. She enjoyed family vacations in their motor home, traveling to 49 states and trips to Hawaii and Canada.
Nancy and Bob raised their four daughters in the instruction of the Lord and to love Jesus with all their hearts. Nancy, above all, loved Jesus. Secondly, her family was her world. But Nancy's sole mission in life was to lead others to Christ. There was not a single interaction that didn't end with Momma sharing Jesus. No doubt there are hundreds of lives that have been changed from a note on a restaurant napkin or a loving hug or just a kind, simple word or prayer. She lived her life by the Lord's Greatest Commandments to love the Lord with all her heart and to love His people. Matthew 22:37-40.
Nancy is now joined in heaven with her Mom, Dad and brother, Don. She is survived by her husband, Bob; four daughters, Lori Graham of Bentonville, Ark., Juli Olson of Panama City Beach, Fla. (husband, John), Keri Cox of Maurnelle, Ark. (husband, Shannon), Sali Bluse of Eau Claire, Wis. (husband, Scott); six grandchildren; one great-grandchild, Vince Olson; and a second one due this July.
A memorial service will be at 1 p.m. Feb. 2 at Chapel on the Creeks, 5202 W. Village Parkway, Rogers, Ark., with Pastor Bob Ryan officiating. Burial will be at Bella Vista Memorial Garden Cemetery.
Memorials may be made to Magnolia Place Memory Care Center, 2000 S. Hampton Place, Rogers, Ark., 72758. Arrangements are under the direction of the Bella Vista Funeral Home & Crematory. Online condolences may be made at www.funeralmation.com.
