NANCY BLECHARZ Nancy Blecharz, 87, of Ross Township, died suddenly at home on Thursday, January 2, 2020. Born May 9, 1932 in Pittsburgh, she was the younger twin daughter of Virgil and Nancy (Wightman) Bears, he of Denver, Colorado and she of Pittsburgh. Nancy was a proud member of Hampton High School's Class of 1950. She went on to study at the Pittsburgh Music Institute with a focus on piano performance, then worked as a church organist, choir director, and private piano teacher. In 1960, she was hired by the H.J. Heinz Company and worked as an executive secretary until the birth of her second daughter in 1968. After working at home for 13 years, she was hired by Burke & Michael, Inc. and then by the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, where she worked for 17 years in several capacities before serving and eventually retiring as secretary to the Chairman, Department of Medicine.

She was deeply loved by her husband, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and she eagerly anticipated the life to come, her “new address,” where she would be made fully alive, when this life ended.
