From Don Conner:

Shortly after sending out the obituary for Rev. Charles Nanney, which was published today in the Digital Courier, I found the following which was on the website for Crowe's Mortuary.  I thought that you would be interested in reading it.

Charles Warren Nanney, 88, passed away on Nov. 22 in Forest City, NC. Born in 1921, the youngest of 17 half-siblings, he grew up in Union Mills, NC and attended Alexander School before entering Wake Forest College in 1938. There he especially enjoyed literature and mathematics, but with World War II imminent he enlisted as an aviation cadet in 1941, pursuing what became a lifelong passion for flying. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor that year, he and his beloved Rachel Johnson, of Rutherfordton, eloped on Christmas Day, 1941. As a second lieutenant celestial navigator in the Army Air Corps, Charles served first as an aviation instructor, then as navigator of a B-17 bomber outfitted for air-sea rescue. With the 5th Air Force in the 3rd Emergency Rescue Squadron, he completed 34 missions in the Pacific theater, flying his final mission photographing Hiroshima after its bombing. Returning home a 1st lieutenant, he and Rachel moved to Raleigh, NC in 1946, where he completed a degree in textile engineering, then returned to Spindale Mills where he became head of the Industrial Engineering Department. During those years, two daughters were born to Charles and Rachel—Judith, in 1946, and Lisa, in 1951. Feeling called to the ministry, however, Charles resigned from the textile industry, and he and Rachel took their young family to Louisville, Ky. to Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he earned a postgraduate degree. After graduation in 1955, he became pastor of Swepsonville Baptist Church, near Burlington, NC where a third daughter, Tracy, completed their family in 1957. The following year, Charles accepted a pastorate in Greenville, SC at Hampton Heights Baptist Church where he and Rachel served for sixteen years. In 1974 Charles become pastor of First Baptist Church of Newberry, SC, where he ministered until retiring in 1981 after heart bypass surgery. Returning in retirement to Union Mills, where he and Rachel had built a house, they gardened, travelled, and became active in Round Hill Church, which his family had attended when he was a boy, and later at First Baptist in Rutherfordton. In retirement he served as interim pastor at Hampton Heights as well as at Calvary Baptist and Fellowship Baptist in Rutherfordton. When Rachel became ill with Alzheimer’s disease, Charles ultimately moved into a Winston-Salem retirement community to stay beside her when she entered a nursing home there, nearer the homes of their daughters Judith (Ginn), Lisa, and Tracy. In the years after Rachel’s death in 2005, Charles remarried; he and his second wife, Grace McCaskill, a lifelong friend to Charles and Rachel, lived at Rolling Green Retirement Community in Greenville until Grace’s death in 2007. Despite recurrent health problems, Charles energetically assumed new forms of ministry after he returned in 2007 to his home community in Rutherford County, NC. There, he taught Bible classes and Sunday School at his church, First Baptist in Rutherfordton; he ministered in song and story to those in local nursing homes; he was instrumental in establishing and marshalling resources for the Union Mills Learning Center. Musically gifted, he composed, published, and recorded sacred songs. A talented writer and speaker, he wrote and published privately a family history as well as a volume, soon forthcoming, of his sermons, poems, and stories of local history. He still enjoyed growing flowers, feeding the birds, playing the keyboard and autoharp, quoting poems and scripture and telling stories of his experiences in World War II, and he would take flight in a small plane at any opportunity. The profound sense of loss felt by his family and all who knew him will be comforted by the knowledge that he was, in his own words, “an old navigator who found his way home at last.” Charles Nanney is predeceased by his parents, Albert and Harriet Ellis Byrd Nanney and by his seventeen half-siblings. Besides his daughters, Judith, Lisa and Tracy, he is survived by two grandsons, Adam and Stuart Ginn; four great-grandchildren—Kate, Isabelle, and Ava Ginn, and Charles Ginn, all of Winston-Salem; and numerous extended family in and around Rutherford Cty. A graveside service for the family will be held at 10:30 AM Dec. 7 at Round Hill Church, Union Mills, followed by a memorial service at 1 PM at First Baptist Church, Rutherfordton. A memorial service will also take place at 1 PM Dec. 15 at Hampton Heights Baptist Church, Greenville, SC. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be sent to Union Mills Learning Center, P.O. Box 210, Union Mills, NC 28167 (unionmillslearningcenter.org); to Round Hill Baptist Church, 6585 Hudlow Rd., Union Mills, NC 28167 (roundhillbaptistchurchnc.org); or to First Baptist Church of Rutherfordton, 246 N.

Merri is back home now.

July 3, 2009

Merri Nanney, daughter of Jack & Barbara Nanney, fell in their driveway yesterday evening (July 2) suffering a small break and badly dislocated ankle.  She was taken to Rutherford Hospital and then transported last night to Mission Hospital in Asheville where she underwent surgery to repair the break and to clean out the wound.  The dislocation was so bad that it ruptured the skin making it look like a compound fracture, but it was only a small break.  Keep her and family in your prayers as she recovers.

We would like to find someone who has a picture of the old school building that was down below the Community House.  We called it the 'Free School”. Several of us are still here that went to that school and would love to find a picture.  The only one that I know of is not a very good copy and surely there is someone out there who has a good one.  Maybe you can find one for us. 

Thanks,

Greetings from a former pastor! Over 60 years ago, I became pastor at Round Hill - an experience I still value highly. From my study upstairs, I hammered out messages and enjoyed the vision of the distant hills. Though short in time, those were precious and formative years. Only a few of the old nesters are still alive there now. Marietta and I send love to the folks in the church and community.    Love, Nolan Howington
