Nancy Ann Navratil Morton, age 74, passed away Wednesday, March 14, 2018 at 15:14 in Leesburg, VA, while holding her daughter's (Mary Barbara and Michelle Ruth Morton) hands. She was an amazing person, full of kindness and generosity, and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Nancy was the eldest child of Ruth Marie (Teske) and John James Navratil. Born in Clarksdale, MS, on February 13, 1944, and raised in Wellington, OH. She grew up driving tractors at her family's tractor supply business, and earned a Bachelor's of Science in both Mathematics and Elementary Education at the University of Miami in Oxford Ohio. She taught in Ohio until moving to Miami, and eventually Fort Myers, Florida with her (then) husband, where she continued to teach at several schools in Fort Myers after her divorce in 1992. She officially retired in 2007, and spent the rest of her years living with Mary and Michelle in Seattle, WA, Los Angeles, CA, and finally in Leesburg, VA. She also held a Real Estate license in Florida.

She extensively traveled throughout the United States, and also the world, both solo and with her daughters, to Europe, Africa, South America, and the Middle East. She enjoyed water skiing, snow skiing, aviation, botany, cooking her famous Apple Pie (among a multitude of other delectable dishes), but most importantly spending time with her daughters, her grandson, and their prides of cats.

She dedicated her life to being a wonderful person to anyone she encountered, offering any assistance within her power to those in need.

She is survived by her two daughters: Mary and Michelle, and her grandson (by Mary) John David.
