Wilton, NY- Nancy Elizabeth Haight Carmer peacefully passed away on April 22, 2026 surrounded by her family. Born January 1, 1937 in Athens, PA, Nancy was the oldest child of the late Carl and Nellie Haight and spent her childhood in beautiful, rural Willawana, PA. She was a graduate of Athens High School and Franklin College of Medical Arts. In 1955, Nancy married her high school sweetheart, Ronald Carmer, and they enjoyed 55 years of marriage until Ron’s death in 2011. Nancy still wore the engraved ID bracelet that Ronnie gave her when she was 14 years old.

Together, Nancy and Ron started Stone Bridge Iron and Steel Co. Inc. in 1973.

Their favorite pastimes were working in their huge vegetable garden, traveling with their dear friends Leon and Carole Steves, and spending as much time as possible with grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Nancy was an active member of the Bacon Hill Reformed Church for over 50 years.

Left to cherish Nancy’s memory are her children: Becky (Patrick) Diggin; Brian (Lori) Carmer; and Britt (Frieda) Carmer; along with grandchildren Kelsey, Tara, Brian, Jessica, Taylor, Maclaine, Britt, Addison and eight great-grandchildren. Nancy is also survived by her sister, Virginia Brown, and brother, Stephen (Debra) Haight. She was predeceased by her brother, Arthur.

The family would like to thank the kind, compassionate, and dedicated staff at the Home of the Good Shepherd in Wilton, as well as Dr. George Knapp for the many years of care he provided for Nancy. We are grateful to you all.
