Nancy was the first wife of Henry Dykstra Jr., who married my mother, Ann Sandifer Dykstra, on June 4, 1983. I had the pleasure of meeting Nancy on a few occasions near the end of her life, as we had a mutual friend.

Nancy was a Registered Nurse, a fulfillment of her childhood dreams.

She passed away suddenly and unexpectedly after suffering a brain aneurysm.

Nancy was the beloved daughter of Elmer Gustafson and Mildred Fulton Gustafson and the cherished sister of Regina "Ginny" Gustafson Silvey McCord.

Nancy was the devoted mother of five: Rae Ellen Dykstra Leir of Lenexa, KS; Jane Elizabeth Dykstra Flannigan of Woodland Park, CO; Beth Ann Dykstra of Midland, MI; Laura Jean Dykstra (Stjepan) Dragash of Anderson, IN; and John Eric (Valerie) Dykstra of Elkhart, IN.

Nine grandchildren were born after Nancy's death: Elizabeth Marvin (Joshua) Blevins of Grand Junction, CO; Kimberly Marvin (Brock) Guildner of Mead, CO; Kyle Leir of Lenexa, KS; Katherine Leir of Lenexa, KS; Nancy Rae Aron of Midland, MI; Susannah Dragash (Bryan) Ball of Bloomington, IN; Jamie Dykstra (Keaton) Leszek of North Judson, IN; David Flannigan of Woodland Park, CO; and Joshua Dykstra of Elkhart, IN.
