In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her sister, Julia Fowler and one daughter, Marilee Rodefer. Mrs. Price spent most of her years on earth loving her husband and their three children. When their children were born her focus and Larry's turned to raising their children and taking them to baseball and football games. She was always mothering the other players. They fondly called her "Momma Price." As the kids grew up and started their own families, Larry and Nancy took to traveling. She called them "adventures." You never knew where they would end up until she would call to tell you about it. She worked many years at Wal-Mart in Jacksonville as the sporting goods manager. Then she worked at the Outdoor Superstore until it closed. Her specialty was hunting and fishing supplies. Nan, as she was called by her grandkids was an absolute joy for her to hear. She was so proud of each of them. She loved to tell everyone about her grandkids and her great-grandson. She was a baptized believer that Jesus is the son of God. In her final hours before the Lord took her home, she was surrounded by her loved ones. She is survived by her loving husband and best friend of 50 years, Larry Price; two sons, Larry Price Jr. and his wife, Brenda, Jerry Ray Price and his wife, Stephanie; two brothers, Ken Moore, Sammy Caviness; five grandchildren, Mikki, Trey, Jaclyn, Jackson, Jasper and one great-grandchild, Tristen.
