Nadine Ruth Spaugh, 92,, of North Platte, passed away on Jan. 3, 2019, at Linden Court in North Platte.
Nadine was born on Aug. 9, 1926, at Upland, the only child to Nels and Ruth Ibsen. She lived at Upland until 1942, when she moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, with her parents. She graduated from Colorado Springs Bible Training School in 1944.
On Aug. 5, 1945, Nadine married David Spaugh at Frankfort, Indiana. They moved to Texas, then Oklahoma and later back to Colorado Springs, where her husband attended college. After David graduated, they traveled in song evangelism work for a year until moving to North Platte in 1952, which became home until her passing.
Nadine and David were blessed with two children, Ruthie and Glen, who were both born in North Platte, and 71 years of marriage. Nadine worked at Sears in the catalog department for several years before going to work for Hallmark.
At a very young age, she gave her life to the Lord. She followed in her parents’ footsteps as a dedicated “prayer warrior.” Nadine was active in the Wesleyan Church including youth and children’s work, and was a Sunday School teacher and church organist until her health began to fail. In later years she attended Parkview Church of the Nazarene.
Nadine loved and cared for her family; each member was special. She enjoyed traveling and often talked about what a joy it was to see the different parts of the country. Her hobbies included collecting salt and pepper shakers and gardening. She also enjoyed cooking for her family, especially at Christmastime, with a vast assortment of cookies and candies. Nadine was very devoted to faith and family. Her encouragement and selflessness will be long remembered and she will be greatly missed.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Charles David; parents, the Rev. Nels and Ruth Ibsen; father- and mother-in-law, the Rev. Oscar and Ina Spaugh; and sister-in-law, Lois Spaugh.
