Granny Nanny's most cherished role was that of a mother, grandmother, and aunt. Her family was her entire life and she devoted everything to them. Every vacation she planned, every article of clothing she mended, every meal she prepared, was centered around her love for her family. Nan and Bob raised five children, Bob Pendray Jr., Cathy Hancock (Kelly Hancock), Judy Lewis (Robert Lewis), Rebecca Francis, and Jon Pendray (Farrah Pendray). They along with their spouses created 18 grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
Nan was preceded in death by her parents Fonzo and Belva black, her granddaughter Celene Hancock, and her three nephews Mickey Wagner, Wade Ivers, and David Jackson.
Nan was an active member of the LDS faith and she and her beloved husband served an LDS mission in the California San Diego mission from August 2007 to August 2008.
