She was born Jan. 28, 1945, in Deerfield, Mo. to Warren Eugene and Jessie Isabelle (Wealot) Pettibon.

Nancy was preceded in death by her parents, and her brother, Leonard Pettibon.

Her favorite type of flower was a rose called “Joseph’s Coat.’’ She also enjoyed birdwatching (especially hummingbirds) and fishing. She was a baker at a local grocery store before she started working at her antique shop. She would eventually retire from General Motors.

Survivors include her husband Haskell Kirk of the home; a daughter, Helena Martin of Flemington; four sons, William Pettibon of Urbana; Jesse Pettibon of Paola, Kan.; James Kirk of Tunas, and Brian Kirk of Tunas.
