Nancy Jane Tench Dodd, age 63, of Alto, passed away on Thursday, October 19, 2023.

Ms. Dodd was born on March 29, 1960, in Alto. She recently retired from Regions Bank as Branch Manager in Clarkesville, and was a member of B.C. Grant Baptist Church. Nancy was an avid reader and enjoyed nature. She especially loved feeding the squirrels every day at a specific time; they always knew when it was feeding time because they would gather to greet her. Most of all, Nancy was a wonderful mother, friend, and mentor.

She was preceded in death by her father, Paul Tench; mother, Martha Eldorado Barrett Tench; bonus mother, Jessie Tench; and stepbrother and spouse, Bill and Reba Martin.

Survivors include her son, Joshua Paul Dodd (Jessica Siscel) of Alto and former husband and friend, Donald Dodd.

Graveside services are scheduled for 2:00 pm on Sunday, October 22, 2023, at B.C. Grant Baptist Church Cemetery with Pastor David Colston officiating.

Everyone should meet at the cemetery no later than 1:45 pm the day of the service.
