Nancy Rae Meyer, 73, of Indianapolis, passed away on Friday, December 6, 2019.

She was born on May 11, 1946 in Goshen, IN to the late Orville C. and Lavon E. (Wideman) Inbody. Nancy was a 1964 graduate of Elkhart High School, where she met the love of her life, Robert E. “Bob” Meyer. They were married on November 14, 1964 and celebrated 55 beautiful years together. After living in northern Indiana for the majority of her life, Nancy and Bob moved to Indianapolis in 2000 to be closer to their daughters.

Nancy worked part time throughout her life to so she could be home with her daughters when they weren’t in school. In 2012 she retired from Raymond Park Middle School as a beloved lunch lady. Nancy enjoyed day trips with her husband exploring small towns throughout Indiana, antiquing, sampling the food at locally owned restaurants, and bargain hunting at yard sales; she always loved finding treasures and special trinkets for friends and family. She loved to watch the local sports teams, including the Colts and Pacers; and IU, Purdue, Penn State and Butler University athletics. Nancy kept her mind active with puzzles and more recently by playing words games with family on her mobile devices. She was most content at home with her family and enjoyed spoiling her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, grand-dogs and grand-cats. Nancy’s primary focus in life revolved around her family, and her loss will be felt by everyone she leaves behind.
