Nancy Jean Eccles

With heavy hearts we lost one of the most sentimental and congenial people, Nancy Jean Eccles, of Absecon, who passed away April 7, 2025, after a brief illness. Nancy was a proud graduate of Mainland Regional High School, then went on to earn her Bachelor Degree in English Literature from Tusculum University in Tennessee. She was a life-long employee with the County of Atlantic, most recently as the transportation coordinator for the Atlantic County Office of Education. In her free time, Nancy enjoyed gardening, reading and any beach that could accommodate her chair and umbrella.

Nancy is predeceased by her mother and father, Helen and Franklin Kelley. She is survived by Larry, her long-time companion and love of her life; her two children, Ben and Aaron; and her sister, Kathy; along with a host of nieces, nephews and grandchildren.

Friends and family are invited to the graveside service at 11AM on Monday, April 14, 2025 at Laurel Memorial Park in Egg Harbor Twp.

Needless to say, Nancy will be sorely missed.
