Nancy Lee Bland Daniel

December 5, 1937 ~ August 29, 2015

Nancy Lee Bland Daniel passed away on August 29, 2015 after a courageous battle with heart and lung disease. She was born on December 5, 1937 in Rocky Mount, NC. Nancy was always known for her love of family. In fact, family was her passion. Nothing pleased her more than a family gathering with good food and lots of laughter. She was the adoring mother, grandmother, sister and aunt who lived most of her life in Rocky Mount until 2009 when she moved to Greensboro to be closer to her family. Nancy worked in the home building industry until her retirement at the age of 70. She worked at Skinner and Associates for many years where she shared her love of all aspects of the building business from administration to interior design. Nancy was a faithful member of Northside Baptist Church in Rocky Mount and attended Trinity Church in Greensboro. Nancy was predeceased by her husband Rubert Daniel, her parents Herbert and Dorothy Bland, and her brother Donnie Bland.

  1. Dottie, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom, Nancy. I had tried many times to contact her since she moved from here. Only successful twice, then her number did not work. Nancy, was such a sweet and kind person. I truly cared for her and enjoyed my friendship. She was a special person in many ways. She has now gone to join our other two angels, Nikki and Betty Jo. What a reunion they will have!!! My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Blessings, Cookie Watson
