Coleman Funeral Home of Oxford Nancy Leake, 75, passed away Wednesday, December 15, 2021, in Oxford, MS. A visitation will be held Sunday, December 19, 2021, at Abbeville Cemetery in Abbeville, MS, from 1:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., with a graveside service immediately following at 2:00 p.m. Bro. Randy Bain will officiate. Coleman Funeral Home of Oxford is in charge of arrangements. Nancy was born to the late Hardy Hughell and Lexie Taylor. Nancy is described by her family as being precious, caring, and who had a kind hearted soul with sometimes a “wild” side. She loved eating out and shopping whenever she got the chance, because it always gave her chance to dress up and put her makeup and jewelry on. She always made the best milkshakes and treats. But above all things, she loved being with her family and friends, and her puppy, Jack! Nancy believed in true love and wanted everyone to know that your person was out there and not to give up. She also inspired others to always work hard, take nothing for granted, and always take care of your family. She will be dearly missed by all those that loved and cherished her. Nancy is survived by her grandson, Jamie (Brittany) Mardis, of Oxford; her great-grandchildren, Liam and Bentley Mardis, both of Oxford, and Neely Taylor and Emma Grace Jenkins; and a special friend, Luanda Freeman, of Oxford. Nancy was preceded in death by her beloved soulmate, Robert Ray Leake; her son, Jeffery Gene Keel; and her daughter, Carolyn Lois Mardis; and her grandson, Joshua Adam Mardis.
