Nancy Hayward Milani, 81, passed away November 9, 2019 at The Brandley Hospice House, Summerfield, FL after a brief illness. She was the daughter of the late Charles and Margaret Hayward and was born in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and was raised there and in York, Maine. Nancy was an honors graduate of York High School. She attended the University of Maine and the University of Nebraska, Omaha, and was a graduate of the University of Michigan Real Estate Institute. She had a successful real estate career for over 30 years in Michigan and Maine. She was a voracious reader and loved music, dancing, films, theater, family genealogy, and long walks. She was an exceptional public speaker and had a passion for politics. Nancy made friends easily, had a wicked sense of humor and was very artistic. She lived her later years in Eastport, Maine and recently relocated to The Villages, Florida. She was devoted to her family and she will be dearly missed by all who loved her. She leaves behind her beloved family: her children, Christopher Milani (Kim) of Plainwell, Michigan, Kimberly Milani Crisp of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and Kristen "Cricket" Mullaney (Brian) of Belmont, Massachusetts; her grandchildren, Christopher II and Joshua (Ashley) Milani, Aidan and Samuel Crisp, and Maura, Charles and Quinn Mullaney; her great-grandchildren, Lexus, Kaitlyn, and Easton Milani; and her brothers, Charles "Chilla" Hayward, Jr. (Judy) of Dayton, Maine and Michael Hayward (Margaret) of Falmouth, Maine. She will be lovingly remembered by her extended family of nephews, nieces, and cousins and a large circle of friends, including her boyfriend, Lester Jones of The Villages, Florida. Along with her parents, Nancy was predeceased by her former husband, Donald Milani, and her sister, Patricia Hayward LaGuardia. A Celebration of Nancy's life will be held in the summer of 2020.
