May 26, 1932 - May 11, 2010

Nancy Jane Reynolds Tiner passed away Tuesday, May 11, 2010 at the age of 77. A memorial service will be at St. Thomas Episcopal Church, 906 George Bush Drive, College Station, Texas at 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 22, 2010 with the Reverend Bill Fowler officiating.

Nancy was born in Bryan, Texas on May 26, 1932 to Elbert Brunner Reynolds and Maudames deSteiguer Reynolds. She married Wayne Douglas "Doug" Tiner on September 2, 1950 in College Station, Texas. Nancy is preceded in death by her parents and husband, and her brother Elbert Brunner Reynolds, Jr. of Lubbock, Texas.

Nancy Tiner was a long-time resident of College Station, growing up on the campus of Texas A&M University. She graduated from A&M Consolidated High School and attended Sullins College in Bristol, Virginia. After marriage, the Tiner's resided in San Antonio where they raised their four children. Nancy was a dance teacher for many years. She taught in Boerne, San Antonio, College Station, and Conroe. She choreographed the musicals at San Antonio's Winston Churchill High School including: My Fair Lady, The Music Man, Hello Dolly, and Finian's Rainbow.

Nancy Tiner had a lifetime of service to the Daughters of the American Revolution. She joined in 1951 and was a very active member. She served 59 years in numerous national, state and local offices some of which include: Recording Secretary General; Vice President General; National Chairman, DAR Magazine; Honorary State Regent; State Vice Regent; State Recording Secretary; State Parliamentarian; Honorary Chapter Regent of Margaret Montgomery Chapter, La Villita Chapter, and Alamo Chapter; and numerous other state and chapter chairmanships. Her belief in the good works of the DAR was a strong force in her life. Nancy was active in the Children of the American Revolution with her children and grandchildren. She firmly believed in instilling patriotism at an early age.

She authored a brochure distributed by DAR chapters to schools on Bernardo de Galvez, which detailed his service to the Colonies during the American Revolution. His service included cattle drives of Texas Longhorns to Louisiana to feed his troops after Spain declared war on England. As a result of this effort, the NSDAR extended membership to ladies who could prove they were descended from the cattle drovers. Because of her efforts for Galvez, she was invited to meet the King and Queen of Spain.

Nancy was also closely involved with the heritage societies Magna Charta Dames, the Mayflower Society; and the Daughters of the American Colonists.

Awards Nancy has received include: the SAR Medal of Appreciation, SAR Martha Washington Medal, National Society History Award, Commendation from the Department of the Army, as well as Honorary Dama de Galvez and Hidalgo de San Antonio de Bexar.

Nancy was very committed to Brazos County. She served as Secretary of the Brazos County Historical Commission, as well as holding several offices in the Brazos Corral of the Westerners and in Texas A&M Women's Club Fine Arts Group. She was active in the OPAS Guild and attended most of the events at the George Bush Presidential Library and Conference Center.

Nancy traveled extensively to most countries in Europe, South America, and the Mediterranean. She enjoyed visiting the family ancestral places of England, Scotland, and Switzerland. In her later years she enjoyed numerous cruises with her sister on the Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen Victoria, and the Queen Mary II and the Alaskan cruise with her sister-in-law, Louise.

Nancy had a great appreciation for musical theater, opera, and ballet. She enjoyed live performances of many famous artists in both the United States and Europe. Yet, "Grammy's" greatest joys were spending time with her grandchildren, attending their activities and events, and having them gather at the river house in Wimberley. She enjoyed the cool waters of the Blanco River, tubing and swimming whenever she could. Her appreciation for history and genealogy took her across country, searching cemeteries for her ancestors.

Nancy is survived by her four children, Dr. Tammy Harriett Ames Tiner and husband, Dr. Kenn E. Harding, of College Station, Wayne Reynolds Tiner and wife, Roxanne, of Houston, Dr. Cassandrea Jane Tiner Hager of Wimberley, and Kenneth Henderson Tiner and wife, Lou Ann, of Sparks, Nevada; her sister, Rosalynn Reynolds Williams of Wimberley; and her sisters-in-law, Louise Kruse Reynolds of Lubbock and Susan Tiner Mitchell of Spring; grandchildren include, Aaron Reynolds Hager and wife, Amy, of Waco, Joshua Alan Hager of Houston, Charlotte Brittany Tiner Beresik and husband, Bryan, of Houston, Bethany Leeann Tiner of Houston, Laura Ames Harding of College Station, Hannah Jane Tiner and Sarah Ames Tiner of Sparks, Nevada; great-grandchildren, Andrew David Hager and Aiden Paul Hager of Waco.
