Gary Alexander Nance

Gary Nance, 59, of Dayton, died Wednesday May 26th 2021, at his home surrounded by his family. He was born on August 30, 1961 and he was a lifelong resident of Rhea County. He absolutely enjoyed spending time with his family, listening to his favorite band Metallica, and making people laugh with his impressions of Beavis and Butthead. He had such a big heart and would give his last of anything to anyone who needed it. He was preceded in death by his parents, Dewey Nance and Martha Nance (Schrimpsher).

Survivors include two daughters Shawna (T.C.) Fisher, Janah (Jimmy) Turner of Dayton, two sisters Michelle (Buddy) Nance, Janet (Ricky) Nance of Dayton, two granddaughters Sadie Fisher and Jade Turner, 3 grandsons Michael, Mac, and Andy Turner of Dayton, a niece and several cousins.
