Maria “Jenny” Nash

With a heart brimming with humor, love, and resilience, Maria Jeanette Nash (born McKine) loving known as “ Jenny, “ has concluded her unforgettable journey of life, leaving a luminous trail of memories in the hearts of those who were fortunate to know her. Born on December 14, 1958.
Jenny has left us on December 26, 2025, having spent her last few years in sunny Los Angeles, California.

Jenny was the embodiment of resilience. She had the courage to reinvent her life, relocate from Arkansas to California, and build a new existence for herself and her children.
Her children inherited her sense of humor, her intelligence, her love for arts, her impeccable taste in fashion, and above all, her unwavering spirit of freedom and resilience. Despite her rollercoaster journey through life, she managed to leave her children with invaluable life lessons learned from her choices.

Jenny was a woman of strength and grace who survived transformative decades. Her spirit, her strength, and her love live on through her children, who she created with her second husband, Glenn Nash. In the words of Maya Angelou, "I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it." Jenny lived by these words, and she continues to inspire her family and friends with her indomitable spirit, even in her absence.

Jenny, leaves behind her beloved family, her first born daughter, that she lovingly and selflessly gave up for adoption, her beloved sons, and her husband, five brothers, sister and 3 maternal aunts. She now joins her parents Hazel and John McKine, who preceded her in death. The care and services are under the direction of North Valley Cremation & Funeral Services.
