Renus George Nash, 84, of Albemarle, peacefully passed away on Monday, December 9, 2024, at his home surrounded by his family. Funeral service will be at 1 PM on Thursday, December 12, 2024, at the Stanly Funeral and Cremation Care Chapel in Albemarle officiated by Pastor Mickey Howard. Burial will take place at the New London Cemetery. The family will receive friends at 12:30 PM prior to the service.
Renus was born on August 9, 1940, in Stanly County to the late Ray and Olar Nash. He is lovingly survived by his wife Kay Frances Nash of 65 years. Those also left to cherish his memory are his children, Philomela “Mena” Dennis and her husband Reggie of Albemarle, Lorraine Eudy and her husband Dale of Albemarle, grandchildren, Chad Dennis (Martha), Steven Dennis (Felicia), great-grandchildren, Shelby Privette (CJ), Colin Dennis, Matthew Dennis, and Caroline Dennis, great, great-grandchildren, Caden, and Westin, and his favorite K9 companion, Brownie.
Renus was preceded in death by his twin sister, Margaret Lorene Nash, and eight other siblings, Virginia Capra, Irene Almond, Fenton Nash, Clyde Nash, Thaddeus (Pat) Nash, Delma Nash, and Victor Nash, and two great-grandchildren, Bentley and Madison.
Renus was known for his love for Mrs. Kay and more importantly, he loved his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was an active member of Tabernacle Independent Baptist Church until his health declined. Renus read his bible everyday at 4 PM and all knew not to bother him during this time. He never missed an opportunity to eat a good plate of fish. He was a great husband, dad, grandpa, and great-grandpa. To know him was to love him. His humble spirit was cherished by all, but his lack of patience made for great stories!
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Tillery Compassionate Care (960 N 1st St, Albemarle, NC 28001)
Stanly Funeral and Cremation Care of Albemarle is serving the Nash family.
