Nancy Elizabeth 'Beth' Marcum

Nancy Elizabeth ‘Beth’ Marcum, born in Knoxville, Tennessee on April 5, 1981, departed this life on July 3, 2020.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Horace and Wilma Gann of Chattanooga, Tennessee and Allen Marcum of Oneida and aunt Nancy Sue Gann and uncle David Gann of Chattanooga.
