Nancy Jane Kovach Stanley
Born May 20, 1948, passed away May 12, 2019 at JFK Medical Center. She was born in Newark, New Jersey and moved with her family to Boca Raton, Florida when she was 14. Soon after she met her true love "Eddie" Stanley, whom she married June 11th, 1966. They owned Johnson's Motor Lodge for six years & remained in Delray Beach.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband R.E. "Eddie" Stanley, her adored father Joseph Kovach, her mother Bertha Harry Kovach and sister Joanne Kovach.
Nancy was a talented artist who designed & drew the Miami Dolphins logo in the 60's which remained on their helmets until a few years ago. She was also a talented floral designer - which she continued to practice until the end. She recently did the arrangements for her 50th high school reunion - Seacrest High. She spent many years in packing & shipping at U.P.S., All Service Mail Room in Boynton Beach and her own Nancy's Pack & Ship in Blue Ridge, Georgia, where she and her husband built a house and made it their home until she returned to Palm Beach County in 2003.
She spent 10 years alongside her loving daughter volunteering for March of Dimes.
She loved the Mountains and the beauty of nature. On the flip side she was always up for fun, adventure and a scary vampire movie. She was compassionate and beyond amazing ~ She was always there to lend a helping hand to help anyone in need. No matter what it was she was there, especially for those she loved.
She was an advocate for Pit Bulls most of her life. She loved them, she loved all animals - they were a great passion. Above all her Greatest Passion and Love was her only child. In her words, she truly lived for her daughter Ursula Dawn. The light of her life and her Best Friend.
She leaves behind her cherished loving daughter Ursula Dawn Stanley, her sister Delores Eichler, her nephews, nieces, many loving cousins, other family & friends. Along with Fur grand babies. All she loved dearly.
She loved life and though she's left the earth for Heaven, she will live on in our hearts. She was much more than amazing. She put the Extra in Extraordinary! If you were lucky enough to know her then you were blessed, leaving her cherished daughter the luckiest person alive. The world won't be the same without her!
As stated before, her daughter Ursula & animals were her Greatest Passion so in lieu of flowers please send a donation in her Nancy's memory to Big Dog Ranch, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue or whatever animal charity you choose that would honor her best.
