Nan Storms

Mrs. Nancy Lee Goodman Storms, age 87 of Concord, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 21, 2021 with her family by her side.

Nan as she was known to all her family and friends, was born April 7, 1934 in Cabarrus county, and was a daughter of the late Clifford Ray and Ernie Ethel Talley Goodman. She was also preceded in death by her grandson, Michael Brandon Long, and siblings, Mabel Scott, Bobby Goodman and Bill Goodman.

Nan was best known as managing the Shoney's in Concord for over 30 years. She always had a smile and kind words for her regular customers and new ones alike. It was important to Nan for her appearance to be its best, so trips to the beauty salon and nail salon with her girls were a must. She loved working, and being with her family, whom she was so proud of, and all her friends. She was an active member of Sharon Baptist Church, where she enjoyed the fellowship with her church family as well. All those who knew and loved Nan Storms will miss that warm, loving heart and her radiant smile.

Left to cherish her memory are her daughters, Anita Dolan and husband, Richard, and Debbie Nix, all of Concord; son, Mike Thomas and wife, Judy of Aurora, CO; 6 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; 2 great-great-grandchildren; sister, Ann Phillips; and numerous nieces, nephews, and other relatives.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Sharon Baptist Church, 2628 Shady Lane Avenue, Concord, NC 28027.

At Ms. Nan's request, private services were held for the family at Carolina Memorial Park.
