Nancy L. Kaiser's Obituary
Nancy L. Kaiser, age 73, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, December 22, 2021 in Grand Haven, MI. She was born on June 12, 1948 to James and Ruth (Wyn) Carlisle in Muskegon, MI. She was a graduate of Orchard View high school class of 1966. On August 15, 1969 she married the love of her life, Fredrick Kaiser Sr., in Muskegon, MI. Together they cherished 46 years full of love and laughter. In her earlier years, Nancy maintained their home and enjoyed raising their son, Freddie. Later in life, she grew bored of being at home and obtained employment with Grand Haven Gasket Company. There she worked for many years and became well versed in all aspects of her job. Nancy was a “jack of all trades” and could work in almost any position. What she is remembered most as being the “shop mom” and taking all the new employees underneath her wing. Nancy was a loving and caring woman, who would help in any way she could. She had the mentality of her door always being open and her generosity was shared with many. She had many hobbies, but she had a passion for diamond painting! She loved sitting at her kitchen island for hours placing each diamond carefully until she finished her masterpiece. She was infamous for decorating her home to the nines for every holiday you could imagine. Nancy was blessed with a green thumb and enjoyed tending to her vegetable garden. Above all things, she truly loved spending time with her friends and family, especially her great-grandchildren and her puppies. She will always be remembered as a loving wife, wonderful mother, doting grandmother and great-grandmother and dear friend to so many. Her tender-loving and spunky spirit will truly be missed by all who knew her. She is survived by her son, Fred (Brandy) Kaiser Jr.; 3 grandchildren, Jordan (Dale Jr.) Orr, Brendan (Brittany) Kaiser and Justin Kaiser; 5 great-grandchildren, Brayden, Layla, Hayden, Barrett and Brextyn; 3 sisters, Sandra (Dale) Carr, Karen Richards; and Judy (Ron) Carlisle; brother-in-law, Ron Kaiser; sister-in-law, Dawn Kaiser; and her dogs “second children”, Snickers and Jasmine. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Fredrick Kaiser Sr; and brothers-in-law, David Richards, Dennis Kaiser and Frank (Janice) Kaiser. A Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 PM on December 30, 2021 at The Lee Chapel of Sytsema Funeral & Cremation Services, 6291 S. Harvey St., Norton Shores, MI 49444. A Visitation with the family will be held one-hour prior. Memorial Contributions in Nancy's honor can be made to the family for her great-grandchildren's education funds.
