Sandy "Nan" West, age 80, Branson, Missouri

Our beloved, Sandy "Nan" West, entered God’s Kingdom on February 13, 2023.

Nan was born to Thomas and Thelma Mead on March 08, 1942, in Cortland, New York. A lover of Jesus and a servant for His Church from a very young age, Nan possessed the spiritual gifts of service, generosity, and hospitality. She would put those gifts to use every opportunity she could. Nan knew no stranger and considered no task beneath her and no person unworthy of serving. After moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico, Nan attended ABQ High School. While growing up, she loved dancing and riding horses. After graduation, Nan went on to be an operator for AT&T, where she later retired after her long tenure. She was passionate about sharing the love of our Lord with others and was an integral part of the many Churches she served. A loyal servant to God, Nan spent many of her hours dedicating her life to using her gifts to impact others for the Kingdom of Heaven. Now that Nan has passed into the arms of our Lord, we should remind ourselves that while this is the end of Nan’s physical life on Earth, it’s the beginning of an eternal and beautiful journey for her.

Nan joins her parents: Thomas and Thelma Mead in Heaven.

She is survived by many loving family members, including her two daughters: Kathie and son-in-law, Lance Conque, and Stephanie West; nine grandchildren: Jonathan (wife, Alex) Placencia, Karisa (husband, Brad) Cook, Josh West, Kas (husband, Tyler) Long, Jacob Weber, Robert Ortiz, Tyler Weber, Jonah Conque, and Bradie Conque; eight great-grandchildren: Emery, Easton, River, Hawkins, Maverick, Conrad, Saylor Jo, and baby boy Placencia on the way; sister by marriage, Lana Lowe; daughter-in-love, TK Spears and her children: Gabriel Armstrong and Angel Adams; and their children: Malachi, Isabella, Adelaide, Olivia, and Calise.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV
