Obituary

She was born Aug. 17, 1914, in St. Maries, to William and Rovena Warren. She was one of five children. Her family moved quite often, so she only attended school through the eighth grade. At a young age, Nancy worked for families in Spokane in their homes. Her family settled in the Harvard area, where she met and married Ray Johnson. They had one daughter, Helen. They lived on their farm until 1962, when Ray passed away. Ray's brother Jake, who was living with them, moved to Potlatch and Nancy worked in Moscow.

She married Frank Bergles in 1967. He worked for Potlatch Corp. in the woods and they lived in Pierce. After retirement, they moved to Orofino, where Frank passed away. Nancy moved to Lewiston in 2011 to be near her daughter.

Nancy enjoyed knitting, crocheting and all kinds of puzzles.

She was preceded in death by her parents, three sisters, one brother and one grandson, Mike Whitney.

Nancy is survived by her daughter, Helen Whitney; grandson Bill Whitney and his wife, Mary; and two granddaughters, Lezlie Whitney and Kellie Tomlinson, both of Lewiston,

There will be a graveside service at a later date. ^[1]
