Nancy Bloodwell

Nancy Bloodwell passed away on January 2nd, 2021 in Winter Park, Florida. She was 89 years old. Nancy was born on August 2nd, 1931 to “Doc” and “Wink” Couvillion in Orange, Texas. Her older brother, ”Jack”, was always her closest friend. Nancy was married to Dr. Robert Bloodwell. They raised four sons, Jeff, Chris, Pat and Matt. The boys all believed they were the luckiest kids around to have a mother who was so loving, outgoing, and fun! Each son was nurtured by her to find their own true strengths. Nancy is survived by Jeff and Kathy and their daughters, Katelyn and Erin; Chris and Aubrey and their son, Ian, and their daughter, Zoe; and Matt and Joy. Her grandchildren all knew their ”Memaw” as a beautiful soul who was full of love for all of them. She is also survived by her sister-in law, Jane Couvillion, and her family in Orange, Texas.

Nancy attended Orange High School and the University of Texas. She graduated from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida with a Bachelors degree.
