 Nancy Linn Peters

    Nancy Linn Peters (formerly VanAmberg, née Jackson), 78, of Midland, Michigan, passed away on August 26, 2026, at the Toni and Trish House in Auburn, Michigan. She was born April 8, 1948, in Lansing to Alfred and Leola (Saunders) Jackson. Nancy grew up in Fowlerville, Michigan, and graduated from Fowlerville High School.

    In 1966 Nancy married her high school sweetheart, Gary VanAmberg. Settling in Manton, they shared 31 years until his passing in 1997. A devoted mother, Nancy prioritized attending her children’s school, band, and sporting events, creating cherished memories along the way. She gave her time to the Rollins Christian Fellowship youth group and later worked as a cook for Midland Public Schools for eight years. Nancy made friends easily and treasured family gatherings filled with laughter and togetherness. Her quiet warmth shone through her freshly baked cookies, thoughtful handwritten cards and letters, and time spent bowling and camping with her family.

    In 2013, she married Roy “Noah” Peters. Together they enjoyed the tranquility of country living, often watching the wildlife visit their property.

    Nancy’s legacy of love lives on through her children, Shawn (Brian) Smith of Midland Michigan, Brenda (John) VanSickle of Beverly Hills, Florida, and Michael (Lea Guirey) VanAmberg of Troy Michigan; her grandchildren, Lauren, Dietrich, Beck, Cole, and Quin; four great-grandchildren, Ada, Arn, Theresa, and Cecilia; her brothers, Randy (Cathy), Jeff (Marda), and Joel Jackson; and all of her nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her parents and her first husband, Gary.

    An interment service will be held on Saturday, October 3, 2026, at Greenwood Cemetery in Fowlerville, Michigan. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Toni and Trish House (toniandtrishhouse.org) to honor their compassionate care.
