Nancy L.  Dinsmore
Nancy Louise Dinsmore (née Carleton, Fulcher), 75, passed away at her home in Marlton on Wednesday, September 19, 2018. Nancy was diagnosed with Stage IV ovarian cancer in 2013 and bravely battled the disease until her passing. Nancy was born July 6, 1943 in Seneca Falls, NY to John and Eleanora (Stevenson) Dinsmore. In 1960, she moved to Cherry Hill, NJ with her mother and stepfather, Daniel Cheney, where she attended Delaware Township (Cherry Hill West) High School, graduating in 1961 and marrying her high school sweetheart, Larry Carleton. Following Larry’s tragic death, she married Thomas Fulcher and moved to Marlton, NJ, where she spent the rest of her years. Throughout the 1970s and ‘80s Nancy was active in Evesham Township government as a member of the Township Council, serving as Deputy Mayor for a term, as well as the Zoning and Planning Boards for many years, and was instrumental in the construction of the Evesham Township Memorial Park. Nancy was a Stephen minister, former member of Faith Presbyterian Church in Medford, and attended Haddonfield United Methodist Church. For more than 30 years, Nancy served as the executive director of the Danellie Foundation, a philanthropic foundation dedicated to serving Christ. In this role she was instrumental in providing financial support to a vast variety of charitable organizations primarily focused on helping children and families in need. Nancy is survived by her mother, Eleanora Cheney of Brightview in Marlton; sister Patricia Walter of MD; half sisters Diane Dinsmore, Dolores Bastian, and half brother James Dinsmore all of NY; children Gregory Carleton of Marlton (AnnaMarie); Julie Carleton of Winter Park, FL; Tamara Fulcher Millaway (William) of Marlton; and T.
