PARIS TOWNSHIP — On a beautiful blue-sky summer morning, with birds singing just outside her window, Nancy Jane Sample Chicko peacefully passed away, Tuesday, July 22, 2025, with her granddaughter by her side.
Born Jan. 13, 1930, to the late Walter Sample and Margaret French Sample, Nancy spent most of her early years in Newton Falls. She married James Chicko in 1952 and settled in Paris Township, where she raised five children and spent her days filling her home with warmth, laughter and a love that shaped generations.
Nancy had a quick wit and a wonderful sense of humor. She was an avid mystery reader, a devoted birdwatcher and loved curling up with her daughter, Cathy, and granddaughter, Nikki, to watch old Halloween movies on TCM — jack-o-lanterns glowing gently on the porch. She adored animals and always had one by her side for comfort and companionship.
But above all, Nancy loved her family. She considered her mother one of her best friends, and she herself was a deeply devoted mother, grandmother and aunt.
Her children and grandchildren spent countless days exploring the vast and magical playground of Grandma’s yard, a place that seemed to bloom in every season. She delighted in hand-picked bouquets of flowers and feathers, and her love made ordinary moments unforgettable.
Nancy is survived by her children, Jimmy Chicko, Cathy Chicko, Jeff Chicko (Pam) and Cindy Custer; her grandchildren, Jackie Chicko, Candi Chicko, Danielle Chicko, Nikki Chicko, Angie Custer, Michael Custer, Mathew Chicko, Ashley Chicko, Joseph Chicko, J. Chicko and E. Chicko; her 13 great-grandchildren; her nieces, Shirley Bickerstaff (Paul) and Vicki Chicko (Denny); and her nephew, John Chicko (Diane). She also leaves behind her loyal and loving dog, Fatty, and faithful feline, Parker.
She was preceded in death by her husband, James Chicko; her beloved son, Joseph Chicko; and her brothers, Leon Sample and Richard Sample (Patti).
Visitation will be held from 9 to 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, July 26, 2025 at the Borowski Memorial Home in Newton Falls, with a celebration of Nancy’s life to be held at 10:30 a.m.
Interment will be in Hawley Cemetery in Paris Township.
The family welcomes all who knew and loved her to join in honoring a life so beautifully lived.
We will carry her with us in everything we do, in every kind word, every laugh and every hand-picked flower. Her love will live on in us always. And as I know she would say to all of us right now: “Don’t cry, honey. It’ll be okay.”
