Nancy Johnson Brockelman

Nancy Johnson Brockelman 90, passed away peacefully with her children by her side, on July 28th at Cheshire Medical Center in Keene NH. She was the daughter of Nicholas A. Johnson and Florence M. Johnson of Lunenburg, MA. She was predeceased by her high school sweetheart and husband Arthur J. Brockelman Jr.

Nancy and “Brock” both graduated from Lunenburg High School. After graduation Nancy worked at the Safety Fund Bank in Fitchburg, MA. She left the working world soon after their marriage to start a family and become a full-time Mother. It was very important to Nancy to raise her children in the town of Lunenburg, where she was born. They built their beloved home on Oak Avenue, next door to where Brock grew up. Upon Brock’s retirement they spent their winters in Melbourne Beach, Florida, and continued to enjoy the warm seasons in Lunenburg. Nancy loved being a stay-at-home Mom and enjoyed gardening, housework, cooking and caring for her children. Tennis became a passion for her after the children grew and she played in a Women’s league at Orchard Hills Tennis Club. Nancy also loved to watch her Grandchildren playing in the backyard pool and attended many of their school sporting events. Family was really her priority in life, and she will be greatly missed by all.

Nancy is also survived by her 4 children: her son, Arthur J. Brockelman III and his wife Denise, of Rindge, NH; her daughter, Julie Brockelman of Melbourne Beach, FL and Fitzwilliam, NH; her son, Mark Brockelman and his wife Laurie, of Fitzwilliam, NH; and her son Christopher Brockelman and his wife Claire, of Wellesley, MA. She leaves 3 Grandchildren: Ella Brockelman, Arthur Brockelman IV and his wife Katie, and Lana Brockelman; Great Grandchildren, Odin Finn Brockelman and Olivia Mae Brockelman.

A private burial will be held later at the Lunenburg North Cemetery.
