Nancy Alice Mohler (Strickler)
Born in Hopeland, PA to
Harry and Bessie Strickler,
she was the youngest in a
family of six with sister
Mary and brothers Robert
and James. Nancy attended
Ephrata High School and
was elected to student coun-
cil and participated in choir.
It was there she met her
devoted husband, Ronald
Mohler, whom she married
in Ephrata, Pennsylvania, in
1950.
They began a family soon
afterwards and gradually
moved west. They settled
in Corvallis, and retired in
sunny Sisters. She was Ron’s
inspiration and companion.
Wherever they were, home
was a priority and they made
everyone feel like family.
Nancy was a nurturing
and loving person. She took
pride in raising her eight
children and had many plea-
sures in life including teach-
ing Sunday school, mentor-
ing, gardening, travelling
the world and artistry. We
will all remember Nancy in
different ways. As the matri-
arch of a large family we
can recall her compassionate
wisdom in the face of adver-
sity, but also her many ways
to celebrate family during
joyful times.
We think of Nancy
through her cooking, where
she passed down family rec-
ipes and traditions, and also
through her paintings and
memories. She found peace
in many places, whether it
be in front of an easel with
her paints, watching wildlife
from her home, or singing in
church choir.
Nancy was a loving wife,
mother, grandmother and
great-grandmother. She is
survived by her husband;
eight children (Curt, Pam,
Susan, Anita, John, Andy,
Jenny, Lisa); 11 grandchil-
dren and four great-grand-
children. Her loving touch
will be with us forever.
A celebration of life will
be held October 28 at 1 p.m.
