Nancy E. Pittner

Nancy E. Pittner of Berrien Springs, MI

Nancy passed away, Sunday, March 10, 2024, at Lakeland Hospital, with her loving husband by her side. She was born in Salamanca, New York, on August 10, 1945, the daughter of Norman and Katherine (Goff) Roszel. On September 4, 1971, in Niagara, New York, she married Daniel Pittner. Together they lived in Grand Rapids and moved to Big Rapids living in married housing so Dan could finish his schooling. After graduation they moved back to Grand Rapids where they remained for several years. They moved around southwest Michigan and finally settled in Berrien Springs in 2008. Nancy worked as a nanny and a short order cook. She was a fantastic cook and loved taking care of her family. Nancy was a woman of strong faith who had a spirit of forgiveness. She was a true Christian and loved the Lord with all her heart. Nancy's giving heart, love of children and desire to do charity work led her and Dan to start a ministry. Together they traveled to orphanages in Israel where they provided humanitarian aid and medical supplies. Nancy had made 7 trips before medical issues stopped her travel. Nancy prayed often with her husband and was the prayer chaplain for Women's Aglow of Benton Harbor. Surviving are her husband, Dan and her son, Norman Daniel (Lisa) Pittner of South Bend. She was preceded in death by her parents. A private graveside service will be held at 11:00 A.M., Thursday, March 14, 2024, at Mountain Home Cemetery in Otsego, with Pastor Joe Shaler officiating. Contributions in memory of Nancy may be made to Hagee Ministries of San Antonio, Texas. Messages of condolence may be posted at WinkelFuneralHome.com.
