October 19, 1930 – March 18, 2026
Nancy Davis Roslund died March 18, 2026 at the age of 95 held by her loving family and with her daughter Christine by her side. Loving Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Wife, Aunt, and friend, Nancy always put her family first and her greatest joys were their accomplishments.
Nancy was born in Charleston, West Virginia where she grew up. Nancy studied at Carnegie Melon University in Pittsburgh, PA, in 1950, where she met her husband and was an artist in training. She moved to the west coast in 1951 and eventually settled in the Bay Area with her husband, John Roslund.
She is survived by her sons, John Cabell and James Davis; daughters, Nancy Lynda and Christine Elizabeth; grandchildren; Nicholas, Katie, Jordan, Gianna, Jimmy, Carrie, and Antone.
She worked as the Director of Lay Ministries and developed a program called Angels on Call, a volunteer service linking those in need with those whom want to help others, for 20+ years at Los Altos United Methodist Church, where she was also a leader in developing “Arts Alive,” an annual display of artists in many forms.
Nancy provided comfort to so many, including her family, church members and the community at large.
Memorial Services will be held Saturday, May 16 @ 1:00 PM at United Methodist Church in Los Altos, 655 Magdalena Ave., with a reception following at the same location.
