September 19, 2023
Nancy Amdahl passed away peacefully on September 17, 2023, at Dove Healthcare in Eau Claire, WI, at the age of 82. Born in Chippewa Falls, WI, in 1941, Nancy was the cherished only child of Glen and Sena Holen. She attended Chippewa Falls High School, where she discovered her love for archery and dancing. It was through her love of dancing that she met her future husband Walter Amdahl, on July 4, 1959, at Rainbow Gardens. On December 17, 1960, Nancy married Walter Amdahl. The couple lived in Waterloo, IA, and Chippewa Falls, WI, before settling on their farm in Cadott, WI, where together they raised two loving sons, Gary and Kent. Nancy was an affectionate mother who adored her family, finding immense joy in spending time with them. Throughout her life, Nancy wore many hats. She worked as a dedicated bookkeeper at Mason Shoe, served as a bus driver for Cadott Community Schools, held positions as treasurer and clerk for the township of Goetz, and delivered mail as a rural carrier for the US Postal Service until her retirement. Nancy had a passion for Western movies, particularly those featuring John Wayne, and she found excitement in the action-packed novels of Louis L'Amour. She was an avid gardener, an excellent cook, and baker, and she generously shared her culinary talents with family and friends. What truly set Nancy apart was her unwavering warmth and genuine interest in others. Her welcoming smile and friendly hello were cherished by all who knew her. She leaves behind a legacy of love and encouragement. Nancy always supported her children's dreams and instilled in them the values of kindness and generosity. Nancy is survived by her sons, Gary Amdahl and Kent Amdahl. Her parents and husband, Walter Amdahl, preceded her in death. A funeral service to celebrate Nancy's life will be held at 2 PM on Saturday, September 23, 2023, at Big Drywood Lutheran Church 27095 120th Ave. Cadott, WI, with Pastor Lucy Schottelkorb officiating, with visitation two hours prior to the service at the Church.
