NANCY LOU HART SHELBURNE CUMMING, 69 of Grant, NE, passed away Friday, May 5, 2017 at Bryan Medical Center West in Lincoln. Nancy was born August 10, 1947 at Ogallala, Nebraska to Elmar and Helen (Bacon) Hart. She graduated from Ogallala High School with the class of 1965. In 1967, Nancy married Lynn Shelburne at Ogallala. The couple made their home in Ogallala for many years. Their union was blessed with 2 children, Ryan and Tandy. Nancy left Ogallala in the mid 1990's, and eventually married Dave Cumming in November of 1998. The couple made their home in Council Bluffs, IA. Nancy moved to Grant in 2008 to be closer to family, following Dave's death. Nancy was a member of the Mother of Sorrows Catholic Church in Grant. The foundations of Nancy's life were faith, family and her great love of animals. For many years, Nancy ran the Happy Hounds 4-H Club in Ogallala. She had a very nurturing soul, and committed herself to the health and welfare of her children. When her kids left the house, Nancy channeled that love into taking care of animals, particularly her boston terrier, Harley. Nancy was preceded in death by her parents; husbands, Lynn and Dave; a granddaughter, Rylee Shelburne; along with many of her beloved dogs. Survivors include her son, Ryan Shelburne of Lincoln; daughter, Tandy (Robert) Overstreet of Grant; 5 grandchildren, Justine and Madison Shelburne, Allisa, Dillon, and Damien Overstreet; her beloved boston terrier, Harley; along with many other relatives and friends.
