Nancy was a pioneer, becoming among the first women to serve in leadership roles in her community, including as Corbin’s first female city commissioner and vice mayor. She brought business savvy and tenacity to everything she did, and I know Knox County will miss her dearly. “I had the opportunity to know Nancy during her long career and was always struck by her boundless energy. Alongside founding her own small business, she volunteered with the Kiwanis, served in city government, led civic groups, and helped organize area Republicans. Few people find the time to do just one of these great things; she did them all. “The only thing that eclipsed Nancy’s love for public service was her devotion to her family. Alongside her husband Bob, Nancy raised two great daughters, Stephanie and Jenny, and was a loving Nana to four grandchildren. Elaine and I share our deepest condolences with the Mitchell family and will hold them in our prayers.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:24:51Z |
