She was born in Kalamo Township to Richard and Bethel (Rich) Graham. Her elementary years were spent at the North Kalamo Country School and her middle school years were at Bellevue Schools. Finally, after district lines were redone, Nancy graduated from Charlotte Public Schools in 1961. Nancy was a member of the band and played the alto sax, which was one of her most treasured possessions.

Nancy married Roger Gusey in August 1963. They were happily married until his death in 2008. Nancy worked at Strecks Insurance until she became a mother in 1970. She worked alongside her husband on their dairy farm. After his passing, Nancy and her son raised beef cattle.

She is survived by her daughter Zandra (Jason) Service, son Adam Gusey, granddaughters Janae Ashley and Kinzie Pierce, great-grandson Kamden Satterly, brother Dick Graham, sister Diana Rockwell, and many nieces and nephews.
