Nancy Backor

Nancy Burton Backor was born in Winters, Texas, on November 5, 1931, to Clyde and Billie Burton and grew up in Carrizo Springs, Texas, where she met the love of her life, Ben Backor. Nancy suffered for several years from Parkinson's Disease. Her suffering ended when she passed away quietly at home on September 28, 2011.
Nancy had an interesting career: she taught kindergarten in Brazoria, wrote for the Brazosport Facts, and worked at Dow's Medical Department in Freeport for many years before retiring in 1992.
Nancy is survived by her husband of 60 years, Ben Backor, her three children, Cathi Backor, Ben (Beep) Backor (Sandra), and Mark Backor (Dawn), as well as five grandchildren, Stephanie Norris (Chad), Kristen Backor (Yaki Tsaig), Lauren Duke (Brandon), Brent Backor, and Lance Arnold, and 3 great-grandchildren. Nancy was dearly loved by her family and many friends and will be greatly missed.
