Nancy was born in Bartlesville on December 14, 1949 to Dorothy and
Harold Henderson and siblings, Trudy and Chuck. She was raised in
Bartlesville and graduated high school in 1968. She earned both a
bachelors and masters degree, in teaching before starting her 40-plus
year teaching career with fifth graders in San Antonio. While there, she
met a young serviceman, "Willy" Moore, and they married. Subsequently,
they were sent to Fort Bragg, North Carolina where Nancy returned to
teaching. When she and Willy parted in 1989, she returned to
Bartlesville with her children, Debra and Ross. After obtaining her
Oklahoma Teaching Certificate, she taught her beloved 5th graders at
Indian Camp School in Pawhuska, until she retired.
Though no longer teaching, she began a second career at Armstrong Bank,
where she thoroughly enjoyed all the "younger" individuals who worked
along side her. She retired for good after about seven years to spend
time with family and friends, but especially with granddaughter, Malayah.
Nancy had many longtime teaching friends who helped fill her life with
joy – and you all know who you are. She was also strong in her faith and
belonged to the First Presbyterian Church of Bartlesville and was a
Deacon, there.
Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, Dorothy (Fenstermacher) and Harold Henderson.
She is survived by her son, Ross (Chelsey) and granddaughter, Zoie; her daughter, Cricket Debra (De'Ontay) and granddaughter, Malayah; her sister, Trudy Ross and her husband, Gary; her brother Charles "Chuck" Henderson; many cousins and their families; special family, Cheryl and Scott Bryan; life-long friend and confident, Carol Stewart and many friends.
Nancy will be privately interred at Bartlesville Memorial Park Cemetery
and everyone is invited to a memorial celebration, 3pm, Thursday, August
8, 2019 at Bartlesville First Presbyterian Church.

Home.
