Nancy Anne Kouba, 70, passed away at the Frederic Nursing Home on Sept. 9, 2023, with her loving husband of 50 years by her side. Nancy was born on May 22, 1953, to Edward and Lucille Prince in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin.
She married Joseph Kouba on Aug. 25, 1973. In 1974 they moved to Webster, Wisconsin, where they raised four kids. Later she went back to school for CNA, where she found her calling at Capeside Cove, taking care of people. She worked as a home health care aide toward the end of her career for Indianhead. Nancy was a wizard as an accountant and found a job at the casino, which she loved. In her spare time, she loved taking care of her beautiful flowers and going on cross-country motorcycle adventures with her husband. Something that she was very proud of was graduating from the TOPS program with a certificate. After striving through many health challenges, she spent time the last 10 years with her family and her beloved grandkids and great-grandkids. Nancy was the most caring and selfless person. She is greatly loved and will be missed by all.
