Nadine Habura Plummer, age 91, peacefully passed into the presence of her Lord and Savior on May 7, 2023 at her home in Knoxville, TN with her daughter at her side. She was a member of Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church in Knoxville. Nadine was born in Pittsburgh, PA on March 16, 1932 and grew up in the Forest Hills area. She graduated from Shadyside School of Nursing and received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Pittsburgh. Her compassionate and caring nature lent itself well to a nursing career as clinical instructor in various Pittsburgh hospitals and later as Director of Nursing in a skilled nursing facility.
On August 12, 1961 Nadine married Robert Lee “Bob” Plummer. They raised two children, Chris and Tom, and together built a life of service to the church and community. Nadine’s faith and strength were evident as she and Bob survived Tom‘s death at the age of 22, eventually encouraging other parents who had lost children through The Compassionate Friends. Nadine delighted in cooking and baking, not only serving gourmet meals for family and friends and frequently providing meals for those in need, but also volunteering in the kitchen at Meals on Wheels for 18 years and at the Greensburg, PA Christ’s Church salad bar where she had been a member. Nadine and Bob loved to travel and enjoyed many cruises all over the world with dear friends.
Following Bob’s death in 2013 Nadine relocated to Knoxville in 2018 to be close to Chris and her family. Although 86 at the time, she quickly made many friends because of the extraordinary person she was. Nadine was one of a kind, someone who put others before herself. She had a strong work ethic and was always the first to help out. She was genuine, patient, and always kind to everyone, holding her friends in high regard. Her faith in Jesus was an inspiration to many. She loved to follow sports and play board games and was a skillful conversationalist, always up on the latest news. Her greatest joy was spending time with family. She was dear “Aunt Dean” to her two nieces and precious “Nana” to her beloved grandchildren, Elise and Cole, keeping them well stocked with cookies and hugs.
Nadine was preceded in death by her parents, Morris and Amelia (Malacky) Habura, sister, Beverly Habura, loving husband, Robert Plummer and son, Thomas Plummer. She is survived by her daughter, Christin McDaniel, (husband, Lee) of Knoxville, two grandchildren, Elise and Cole McDaniel and two nieces and their families.
Friends will be received from 10-11 a.m. on Saturday, June 24, 2023 at the James W. Shirley Funeral Home, 176 Clay Pike, North Huntingdon, PA. 15642 and a Celebration of Life will follow at 11 a.m. Interment will be private in Irwin Union Cemetery.
