Nancy A. Bornemann

July 25, 1929 — January 23, 2021

Nancy Alice Learned Mott Bornemann passed away January 23, 2021 at the Maplewood Nursing Home in Webster, NY from the effects of Covid-19.

She was born July 25, 1929 to Harry G. Learned and Ruth A. (Nicholoy) Learned. Her brother, David H. Learned and Janet S. Nellis (Learned) predeceased her.

She graduated from Irondequoit High School and married John R. Mott on December 13, 1947 after meeting him while working at DuPont. They had five children, David C. Mott, Beverly J. Mott (deceased 07/10/1969), Gary S. Mott (deceased 11/10/1955), John S. Mott (DiAnne), Stephen P. Mott (Kelly), and one stepson, Paul Bornemann (Heather).

7 grandchildren: Gwen Scibienski (Mike), Kerri Yacono (Derek), Robin Nicholls (Kevin), Chris Mott (Kelly), Andy Mott (Jessica) Zach Bornemann (Melissa), and Alex Bornemann (Rachel) and seven great- grandchildren Ava, Owen, Grayson, Gia, Lillian, Teddy and Tommy.

She was a member of the former St. Luke's Lutheran Church where she sang in the choir, altar guild, Loyal Lutherans, became a liturgical deacon, and taught Sunday School. She was a volunteer art teacher in the Rochester school district and delivered meals on wheels.

She was remarried to Peter Bornemann (deceased 05/06/2007). They lived in Cambridge, Maryland where she ran a volunteer gardening group for the residents of the Eastern Shore Hospital where Peter was chaplain. She also played piano and organ for the chapel services.

She was very artistic, a painter in both oils and watercolors, played piano and had a beautiful soprano voice. She loved classical music but would also accompany family sing a longs. She made beautiful quilts, sewed, knitted, and crocheted.

She loved the outdoors from summers in her childhood at Sodus Bay to camping, hiking, and canoeing in the Adirondacks. Some of her favorite places were Letchworth Park and Lake Ontario where she always enjoyed a frozen chocolate custard from Abbots. She owned a sailboat in Maryland and enjoyed sailing on the Choptank River.

She was an excellent gardener and inherited her mom's green thumb. She was an advocate for those less fortunate in society and was a champion of social justice.

Her greatest joy was to be surrounded by family.

The family would like to extend many thanks to the staff at the Maplewood Nursing Home for the care and compassion that they gave to mom over the years. They loved mom and took very good care of her and were with her when she passed away.

Please honor Nancy by celebrating life itself with friends and family and show compassion to those less fortunate.

At a later date we will have a memorial service but the date has not been set but will be posted here.
