Nancy Carol Tierney was an incredible wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She passed away on March 31, 2021 at the age of 73 after a courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by family who will honor her by living their lives to the fullest.
On May 11, 1947, Kenneth and Allene Hauck received a Mother’s Day blessing when Nancy was born. Nancy grew up in Arlington and Springfield, VA before moving to Virginia Beach. A wildly intelligent and dedicated student, she graduated near the top of her class from Robert E. Lee High School (now John R. Lewis High School) in Springfield, VA and went on to obtain a B.A. in History from the College of William & Mary where she was a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. After teaching in the Virginia Beach public school system and working with her father at the American Truckers Association, she worked as a legal assistant at the international law firm Holland & Knight for over 30 years before retiring in 2015.
