Nancy Pannell

Nancy (Fletcher) Pannell, age 76, of Saltillo, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, November 17, 2020 at the Sanctuary Hospice House in Tupelo. She was born on December 6, 1943, to Sheldon and Artle Lee (Griffin) Fletcher in Cleveland, Miss. Nancy was a member of Faith Baptist Church in Saltillo. She graduated from Cleveland High School in 1961 and attended Delta State University. Nancy was known for her love of the Mississippi Delta where she grew up on her father’s dairy farm in Cleveland. Nancy had a passion for art and design, starting her own interior design business, “Nancy’s Interiors” in 1990. She will be remembered in many people’s hearts as they continue to enjoy the art and designs they are left with because of Nancy’s eye for color and layout. Nancy loved to laugh with her friends, to spend time with her grandchildren and to enjoy life.
Survivors include her two Sons, Bradley D. Pannell (Jennifer Roberts) Pannell and Ash F. Pannell all of Saltillo; three grandchildren, Drew Pannell, Tatum Pannell and Hayden Pannell of Saltillo; one brother, Sheldon Fletcher of Crawford, Georgia, and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Dean Pannell (February 13, 2015); sister, Betty Amerson; brother, George Fletcher and her parents.
Visitation will be 1 until 3 p.m. Sunday, November 22, 2020, with a memorial service at 3:30 p.m., Sunday, at Faith Baptist Church in Saltillo. W.E. Pegues Funeral Directors in Saltillo is in charge of arrangements.
