Obituary
Nanci Burt Shull passed away on April 2, 2005 at home. She was born on July 25, 1947 in Fort Worth, Texas. She grew up in Leawood, Kansas and graduated from Shawnee Mission East High School. Nanci attended Kansas State College Pittsburg, Kansas and Loyola University in Chicago. She was an active member of the Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority. Nanci started in the insurance industry at an early age and worked in all areas including Senior Management. She was with Fireman’s Fund for many years in branches from coast to coast. She returned to Califonia eight years ago and resided in Mission Viejo.
Nanci will always be remembered for her positive spirit. She was always laughing and happy, never letting anything get her down. She fought cancer twice and beat it both times with undying positive attitude. Nanci had a true compassion for people and animals. She always had time for friends and family, and would spread her contagious smile everywhere she went. She had volunteered at a local animal shelter, and often created her own animal shelter in her home as she nursed injured or lost animals back to health. Anyone who knew Nanci will always remember her wonderful laugh and her beautiful positive spirit.
Nanci is survived by her husband, Doug Burt; her daughter, Kelley Demas; stepson Chris Burt, his wife Yolanda and their children Gabbie and Alex; stepdaughter Rosanna Cohle and her husband Andy. She is also survived by many close friends as well as her many pets.

Doug,Kelley,Chris,Yo,Roseanna & Andy
We are so, so sorry about Nanci.
Her obit was right on…her love of
animals and her continual smile…
and that infectious laugh. You are
all in our thoughts, especially you Kelley,
she was much too young to leave this planet
and her beloved family and pets.
Love,
Nina, Wally, Ellen, Dan, Andy & Patrick

Dear family,
Nanci, Bob and I have shared so many memories and all of them are happy ones. From the good old days of Tri Sigma, to our apartment in KC where we survived on noodles, with butter and ketchup, to evenings out at the Bigger Jigger with Nanci’s dad where we ate shrimp until our hands were prunes, to trips to Chicago to see Peter and Bill, through all the good times, with a few scattered rough times, Nanci will live in our hearts and memories forever. The world is a better place because of her.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you today and always.
God Bless You,
Amy and Bob

I worked with Nanci at CNA and stayed in contact with her after she left CNA. Nanci was a good friend and I will miss her and the jokes she would send me.
