Nancy Ann Breznau, 92, of Lapeer, formerly of Caseville, went to be with our Lord on December 8, 2023. She died peacefully in her sleep early in the morning at Lapeer County Medical Care Facility. Nancy was born in Weehawken, NJ, the youngest of four children. She was a happy, friendly person, always with a smile on her face, and a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She married John “Jack” Charles Breznau on September 8, 1951(married 67 years), and worked as a secretary at several locations, including the University of Detroit High School in Detroit, before establishing a retail business with her husband Jack. Starting as “The Village Shoppe,” it eventually became the “Seagull Mall” in Caseville and “Nancy’s” in Pigeon, MI. A highlight of their life was when, Nancy (age 70) and Jack (age 74) became ordained local Episcopal priests on December 29, 2001.
