The family permanently moved to Oklahoma City within a year where the twins attended Culbertson Heights Elementary School, Webster Junior High and Northeast High School.After high school, Nancy studied voice at Oklahoma City University where she joined the Gamma Phi Beta Sorority. While music continued to be a lifelong passion, Nancy decided to study science at Central State College. This is where she met her husband, Chester Cromwell. They were married on November 22nd, 1951 and began their family which eventually included three children. A life long Presbyterian, Nancy called First Presbyterian of OKC her church home.Nancy was happiest when her family was together. She and her twin brother lived five houses from each other until his death five years ago.
