Nancy Marie Essiambre

Nancy Marie Essiambre of Waterford, born February 14, 1959 in Pontiac, Michigan, passed away unexpectedly on March 10, 2026 at the age of 67.

Daughter of the late William and Maryanne Beal, Nancy was a devoted mother to Jason M. Moore, Megan R. Essiambre, and James L. Essiambre, and a cherished grandmother to Bentley Kobs, Madison Moore, Jasmine Moore, Brycen Kobs, Sadie Essiambre, and Olivia Moore. She is also survived by her siblings Kathy (William) Burns, Lynda Beal, Steven (Beverly) Beal, Kenneth Beal, Christopher (Edith) Beal, and the late William (the late Karen) Beal, Jr.

Known for her infectious laugh, Nancy was affectionately called “Bubby” by her family and “Nene” by her grandchildren. A caregiver at heart, she devoted her life to working in group homes and senior care facilities, tending to the needs of others with genuine compassion. Her gentle touch extended even to her house plants, which flourished under her care and earned her the reputation of having a magic green thumb.

A celebration of Nancy’s life will be held at a later date.
