Nan Elizabeth Touscany


Nan Elizabeth Touscany left this world for her new home in heaven on Thursday, July 31 2025. Her long battle with health issues has come to an end and she is FREE!

Nan was born April 2, 1976 in Michigan.  She was born in the bicentennial to Michael and Suzanne Touscany.  Nan was as unique as her name.  She had a generous spirit and a loving heart.  She was a gifted student and athlete.  She played soccer, volleyball, was a competitive swimmer, and cheerleader.

She was passionate about art and music and was accomplished at both.  She treasured her animals and had a cat that played piano with her.

She accepted Christ as her savior at age 7 and her life verse was Jeremiah 29:11 (long before it became famous).  She loved singing in her youth group and in choirs.

She married Wayne LaMay in 2008 and it was “till death do us part”. They enjoyed travel and meeting new people.

She was predeceased by her grandparents: Bob and Louise Mistele and Bob and Pattie Touscany, her beloved father Mike Touscany, uncle Paul Bechler and uncle Jerry Lowry.

She is survived by her husband Wayne LaMay, her mother Suzanne Touscany, sister Melinda Howell, nephews Grayson and Payton Carr and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.  She had a special best friend Shawn Yurcaba that had been her best friend since kindergarten.

Nans favorite saying was “When words fail, music speaks”. We (she) believed in the blessed hope that we have in Christ that upon our death we will be in heaven with Him if we are believers in Him, to be reunited once again forever with our loved ones.

Thank you to all who prayed for Nan throughout her long journey. May God Bless each one.  Nan would end this with “Peace Out”.
