Nancy C. Van Doren

Nancy Christine Seidler Van Doren was born January 10th, 1961 in Ontario, Canada and spent a lifetime in service to others as a dedicated mother, wife, nurse, and friend. Following a brave battle with a terminal disease, Nancy began her next great adventure on November 7th, 2020 surrounded by those who loved her. She is predeceased by her parents, Helmut and Rita, as well as her brother Gerry. She leaves behind not only her husband of 34 years, Melvin “Wayne” Van Doren, brother, David, and three children, Alexander, Elizabeth and William, but a family that spans continents. She let her little light shine.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you send a favorite story or memory of Nancy to P.O. Box 1764 in Easton, PA 18042; donations to the Daily Bread Community Food Pantry in Collegeville, PA, where Nancy volunteered, would also be appreciated.

Arrangements are under the care of the Johnson-Walton Funeral Home, 24 Church Road, Milford, NJ.

Condolences

From: Eva Lohrer
We are thinking of you all during this difficult time. We are hoping Nancy is in a better place and we are grateful that her suffering and your suffering is over. I have many wonderful memories of visiting with Nancy over the years at my parents home. She and my Mom shared a very special bond which had carried over so naturally from the deep friendship her parents had with my parents. Nancy was very much a member of our family. She was a beautiful person and we will miss her laugh, her friendship and her love.

We were deeply saddened to hear the news of Nancy. Boy, did we have some good times. My first meeting at preschool in 1993 with Nancy, another room parent, up to and including swimming in your pool with the canoe. I still think of her when I hear Tim McGraw's "My Best Friend" and of course Guns and Roses blasting on the stereo while we danced and the kids played in the playroom downstairs. Our sincerest sympathy to Wayne, Alexander, Elizabeth and William. :(

Nancy was one of the most dedicated and caring nurses I ever had the pleasure of working with in my career. She was an exceptional Friend, Mother and Wife that will be missed on this earth by all that knew her. My sincerest condolences to Wayne and the kids. Kirsten Dugan
