Nancy Lee (Partlow) Jasperson of Elk River, Minnesota, passed away peacefully on May 25, 2026, at the age of 77.
Nancy was truly a force of nature — strong-willed, outspoken, and unforgettable. She was a bright light whose presence could never be ignored. She loved fiercely, deeply, and unapologetically. Her faith in God and love for her country were important to her, but nothing mattered more than her husband, daughters, and grandchildren. She would have cherished watching her grandchildren continue to grow into strong and beautiful adults.
Many knew Nancy as Mike’s wife and business partner, but to those closest to her, she was so much more. She and Mike shared a fun-loving marriage that lasted an incredible 58 years — a rare and beautiful testament to their love and commitment.
Nancy found joy in life’s simple moments, especially tending to her garden — even if that mostly meant pulling weeds. She was the ultimate sports mom while raising her girls, and if you were at the game, you could always hear Nancy cheering from the stands. She proudly carried on that tradition with her grandchildren, supporting them with the same enthusiasm and love.
Nancy’s strength, laughter, loyalty, and fierce love will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Nancy is survived by her loving husband of 58 years, Michael Jasperson — affectionately known to her as “Mick Mo” — and her daughters, Brandee (Steven) Bobzin, Farrah (Devin) Flynn, and Kristie (Mitchell) Sperl. She also leaves behind her five beloved grandchildren: Natalie, Aiden, Olivia, Aubree, and Chase.
A celebration of Nancy’s life will be held Tuesday, June 16, 2026 from 5:00 to 8:00 PM at Dare’s Funeral Home, 805 Main Street NW, Elk River, MN.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Dare’s Funeral Home of Elk River, MN. 763-441-1212. www.daresfuneralhome.com
