Nancy Larson

July 18, 1960 - September 10, 2023

Nancy Larson, age 63, of White Earth, MN, died on Sunday, September 10, 2023, at her home.

Nancy Carol Brown, the youngest child of Augustus and Mabel (Flora) Brown was born in White Earth on July 18, 1960. She grew up in the White Earth area where she attended school. Following her graduation from Waubun High School, Nancy furthered her education at the Detroit Lakes Vo-Tech College. While attending college, she met the love of her life, Lawrence Larson. The young couple were united in marriage on April 6, 1979, and they made their home together in the White Earth area. Larry passed away in 2021 and Nancy remained in their home until her death.

Over the years, Nancy worked for several years at the Swift Turkey Plant and later was employed by the White Earth Nation in the land office. Due to her declining health, Nancy took an early retirement after 25+ years. She had several hobbies that kept her busy including sewing, beadwork and crocheting. She also enjoyed listening to music, especially Elvis, and working on crafts. She made many beautiful holiday swags and wreaths. Above all, Nancy loved her Lord and family. She had a special bond with her granddaughters: Tatianna, Thalia, Tia and Tacara, whom she was currently raising, and cherished all her grandchildren. Big family dinners and celebrations were important events she treasured. These were also opportunities to show her granddaughters how to cook and some of her favorite meals were turkey with mashed potatoes and gravy or hamburger gravy over potatoes and apple pie. Although gone from this life too soon, Nancy will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her forever.

Nancy is survived by her children, Caroline and Matthew; 12 grandchildren; one great grandchild; a sister, Beverly (Jim) Libby; two brothers, Ken (Aurelia) Brown and Frank Brown; sisters-in-law, Tammy Brown and Shelly Brown; and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Larry; son, JR Larson; and siblings: Mae (Joe), August, Thomas, Ronnie, Ralph, Roger, Tim and Jesse.

Visitation began at 5:00 pm on Thursday, September 14, 2023, at the White Earth Community Center, White Earth, MN, with a Prayer Service which was held at 6:00 pm. Visitation continued until the time of the Funeral on Friday, September 15, 2023, at 11:00 am. Burial took place at Chief Cornerstone Cemetery, White Earth.
