SPRING GLEN/VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - Nancy Lodeserto Harbison, 69, died July 14, 2003.
Born May 27, 1934 in Spring Glen, she was a coal miner's daughter of Italian immigrants, Jerry and Minnie Sacco Lodeserto.
The Navy brought Nancy and her husband, Fred, to Tidewater, Va. in 1969. After Fred's retirement, Nancy set up her own uniform and tailoring shop in 1981, which would be the joy of her life. She spent many happy days ensuring that her customers' clothes - prom gowns to dress uniforms-were perfect. During her 22 years of service, her customers ranged from the Secretary of Defense to young airman, Virginia State Police and her granddaughters. Her customers were her friends and she would take time to listen and offer advice, condolences and congratulations, always with a big smile.
A loving wife and mother, she always put her family before herself, no matter what was going on in her life. Her children were priority and she cherished her grandchildren and husband more than anything else in the world.
She is survived by husband, Fred; daughter, Nan; sons, Richard, Alan, Doak, and Kip; and grandchildren, Shana, Chad, Leah, and Luke; and sisters, Rosie, Anita and Mary; and brother, Albert; and special brother-in-law, Dick. Preceded in death by parents; and brother, Jerry.
A memorial service was conducted Saturday, in Virginia Beach, by the Revs. Parke and Mark Burns.
R.W. Baker and Funeral Home and Crematory is in charge.
