Obituary: Nancy (Scott) Bushey



Nancy (Scott) Bushey passed peacefully on Monday, October 23, 2023 after a long illness. Born in Gettysburg June 16, 1937, she lived a full high-spirited life for 86 years. Her heart belonged to the family farms and Adams County. After many years living in Harrisburg she decided to move back to Gettysburg in the mid-1980’s to take over managing the family farms and cattle business. She was always in the thick of things getting her hands dirty or bottle feeding a struggling calf, whatever needed to be done, she was eager to be involved. She was very passionate about farm life, family, and friends.
