Obituary of Nancy C Cobb

Nancy C. Cobb, 86, of Lords Valley, PA passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on February 1, 2025.  Born in Johnstown, PA on June 13, 1938 and raised in Rutherford, NJ, Nancy graduated from Rutherford High School, where she met her future husband Ralph.   They later moved to Montvale, NJ where they raised their three children. 

 

While raising their family, Nancy decided to pursue a nursing career and enrolled in the Englewood Hospital School of Nursing where she graduated top of her class.  Her nursing career spanned 30 years at Englewood Hospital, Bergen Pines and finally 21 years at Pascack Valley Hospital, where she retired from in 1996.  Eventually, they found their retirement home in the Hemlock Farms community in the Poconos, where they very happily resided for the last 30+ years.

 

She was married to the love of her life Ralph Cobb for 65 years. Nancy was a devoted wife and mother, had a great sense of humor, a voracious reader, an animal lover, and a staunch supporter of the greyhound rescue mission, even adopting 6 greyhounds over the years.  Nancy loved to cook, host celebrations with family and friends and enjoyed family vacations for many years in Ocean City, MD.
