NANCY BOLYARD OBITUARY

Nancy Maydith Grace (Roads) Bolyard was called to heaven on May 30, 2022 at the age of 70. She was born in Boulder, Colorado to Grace (Darling) and Paul Roads and was given the name Nancy after her great-grandmother; Maydith after her grandmothers May and Edith; Grace after her mother. She attended Lafayette, Colorado schools and the University of Colorado in Boulder. Marriage brought Richard and her to Rapid City, South Dakota. On June 10, 1972 they lost their house in the flood when it ended up miles downstream, destroyed. Because 238 people were killed, Nancy was so grateful that her friends were okay. Her daughter, Jenni, was born in 1976 and was physically and mentally handicapped. This gave Nancy the opportunity to meet some wonderful friends. She joined Agape (which means unconditional love) Spiritual Center and met more wonderful friends. In 2010 she fell and broke her back; this put her into a wheelchair. She was a member of Agape Spiritual Center, First Step Pre-school, Retired Senior Volunteer Program, ARC, Hopeful Club, and the Mayor's Committee for the Handicapped. Her most treasured memories were the first time her daughter Jenni laughed playing with a doll given to her by her Aunt Marilyn; 1990 adventures in Switzerland, Austria and Paris with her brother, John and her sister, Marilyn; her time in Las Vegas with her High School classmates; trips to Deadwood with Dawn; being carried in her wheelchair up and down the 8 steps at Agape's first location; all the joyful assistance given by Bob French, Agape members, TLC staff, Dial-A- Ride, Meals on Wheels and others. Nancy leaves behind her sisters, Carol, Cynthia (Hal), and Marilyn (Jordan); niece Emily (Robert) and their children Ellie, Charlotte and Owen.
