Nancy Lott was born on March 1, 1937 to W. L “Dub “Lott and Iva Craig Lott, in Scott County, Mississippi. Her family moved to Shreveport, Louisiana. After she married Travis Usry in 1957 they settled in the High Hill Community outside of Forest, Scott, Mississippi.

Survivors include her daughter Tina (David) Mabry and son, Kent (Kaye)Usry; grandchildren, Kris(Missy) Usry and Kristie( Davidson) Callahan; and great grandchildren, Ben and Travis Usry, and Chloe, Carter and Callie Jane Callahan. She is also survived by her sister, Ann Lott Anderson, of Shreveport.

Nancy was an excellent cook, famous for her homemade pies, and for being the co-owner of the Back Forty Restaurant. She named the restaurant "The Back Forty" after being told as a young girl that she couldn't go out with the men to work on the back forty acres of the family farm. By naming the restaurant the Back Forty, she was able to go there whenever she wanted. Nancy was an excellent story teller, and an ardent supporter of her church. She loved playing with her “grands”, gardening, traveling, and cooking. She enjoyed meeting new people and especially loved being co-owner, hostess, and cook at the Back Forty Restaurant.
