NANCY JEAN MOOK
August 30, 1935 – December 2, 2025
Nancy Jean Mook, devoted wife, mother, daughter, grandmother (“Nana”), sister, and aunt, passed away peacefully on December 2, 2025, in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Born in Lincoln on August 30, 1935, to Maurice (Cliff) and Ruth Clifford (Bobst), Nancy graduated from Northeast High School in 1955. She continued her education at Nebraska Wesleyan University where she was affiliated with Delta Zeta sorority. On November 27, 1957, she married Robert. Nancy was employed with the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce until 1960. She later worked tirelessly to support the family real estate appraisal business.
Throughout her life, Nancy was known for her warmth, compassion, and unwavering support of her family. She demonstrated dedication to her loved ones through her presence and care; cherishing time spent with family and finding joy in everyday moments. Her commitment as a mother and “Nana” was evident in her deep involvement in her grandchildren’s lives.
Nancy had a passion for reading, with a particular fondness for biographies and Nebraska and Lincoln history. She relished the thrill of book shopping; always on the lookout for the perfect book to add to her collection or for gifts to share her passion with her family and especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Nancy is survived by her husband of sixty-eight years, Robert; sons Brian (Joni) Mook (Lincoln, NE), Allen (Cynthia) Mook (Plano, TX), and Andrew (Kim) Mook (Lincoln, NE), and *Rachael (Jared) Brown as well as by her eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. She is fondly remembered by her extended family and friends, including sister-in-law Sue Clifford, and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and others.
She was preceded in death by her parents, brother Gary Clifford, and sisters-in-law and their spouses Evelyn (Bud) Smith and Marilyn (Duane) Everett.
The family appreciates cards and respectfully asks that no flowers or memorial donations be sent. A service and Celebration of Life will be scheduled at a later date.
