Biography

Early life

A picture of Nancy at an unknown age.

Nancy was born in Michigan to parents Ramsa Sarah Kallie (October 25th, 1910 – August 2nd, 1976), an elementary school teacher, and Saleen Essa Kiswiney (June 13th, 1909 – 1983), a grocery store manager. Nancy was the youngest of 3 children. She had two siblings, Carol McGuire (née Kiswiney), and David Kiswiney.

According to newspaper clippings, Nancy attended Grosse Pointe High School. At age 17, she was placed onto her school's honor roll.[5] After high school, she attended Michigan State University, which she graduated from in 1969 with a Bachelors Degree in arts, and a minor in Humanities.[6]

Later life, and adoption of Elisabeth

Nancy married Daniel William Shimer (1943–2015) on November 28, 1970.[7] They had two biological daughters, Sarah and Rachel, and eventually one adopted daughter, Elisabeth Shimer.

According to Daniel, Nancy worked in social services, with her job requiring her to relocate infants put up for adoption. During one of these relocations, Nancy stumbled upon Elisabeth while she was still an infant, to which she then adopted.[8] It is unknown what relationship Elisabeth had with Nancy's biological children, much less what Nancy's relationship with her husband was, especially given their divorce on September 1, 2005.[9]

Following her adoption of Elisabeth, she moved to from Michigan to California, where she took care of Elisabeth and her other children.

Relationships

Daniel

Elisabeth

Bob Proctor

It was widely speculated that Nancy Shimer and Bob Proctor were in a long-term relationship before Bob met Daniel through the Tennyson Center Reading Buddies program. However, Daniel stated that Bob and Nancy were both in a friendship around the time Bob had met Daniel.

Nancy had also fought for custody of Daniel sometime around 2017-2019 when Daniel has transitioned from Tennyson and Sobesky to his group home that he had been living in. Daniel claimed in an Spiddlekick Interview that Nancy and Travis had fought for custody over Daniel, and that Nancy managed to easily win the custody battle with the defense that Daniel had not known his father. It is possible that Nancy was a case manager for Daniel, or at least took on that role during Daniel's stay within his foster homes and under her guardianship.

Death

Nancy Shimer passed away at the age of 72 due to cancer, however the type of cancer she had is unknown. She had left a trust fund for Daniel in the hands of Bob Proctor, and had Daniel sent to live in a group home, where he remained between 2019-2021. According to Flexburger, Daniel claimed that he never attended her funeral.
