(Nancy) Chase of Homer; five grandchildren, Nancy Richards, Brad Adams, Douglas Adams, Lorraine Place, and Bonnie Lynn Coon; ten great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; her sister-in-law, Doris Pine; and several nieces and nephews.

In addition to her husband, Harold, she was predeceased by her youngest son, Gary E. Chase in 2000; a brother, Frank J. Pine; sister, Jennie Chapman and her grandson, William R. Chase in 2004.

Funeral services will be held at noon on Saturday, July 30, 2011 at the Donald L. Barber Funeral Home, 5016 N. Main St., Homer, with Rev. Barbara Rhudy officiating.
