Obituary of Nancy J. Stowe

Nancy Stowe, of Glastonbury, Connecticut, passed away Wednesday October 20, 2021, at her home at the age of 81.  She was the loving wife of 49 years of the late Peter Stowe until his death in 2016. 

She was born on June 25, 1940, to the late Edgar and Lillian (Cyr) Choiniere.  She grew up and attended school in Worcester, Massachusetts.  She moved to Glastonbury in 1970, where she and Peter raised their family. Nancy spent her career in advertising at various newspapers, including The Hartford Courant, Journal Inquirer, and Worcester Telegram.  She enjoyed bowling, going to the casino, summer vacations with her family on Cape Cod, going to tag sales, and spending time with her grandchildren.  She was an avid animal lover and made people laugh with her dry sense of humor.

Nancy is survived by her four children:  David Stowe and his former spouse Tessa of Glastonbury, Michael Stowe of Glastonbury, Lisa Nelson and her husband Steven of Hebron, and Matthew Stowe and his partner Christopher Balerna of Boston, and three grandchildren Kyle, Ryan, and Joshua Nelson of Hebron.  She is also survived by her brother, Robert Choiniere and wife Maurita "Bunny" of Oxford, Massachusetts, and predeceased by brothers Edgar Choiniere, Norman Choinere, and Paul Choiniere.
