LOVITCH NANCY Age 74, passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 25, 2021 at her home in Bryn Mawr after an extended illness. Survived by her loving husband, Dr. Edward Bleeden, daughter Laura (Ryan) Maleknia and granddauther, Ava Leigh; brothers Fred (Dinah) and Edward (Martha) Lovitch: sister-in-law Ellen Richmond; nieces and nephews as well as extended family. She is predeceased by her parents, Clarence and Freda (Rubenstein) Lovitch. Nancy was a proud native of Williamson, West Virginia. Following her graduation from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in teaching, she attended Antioch College where she earned her Master's degree. She taught special education in the Philadelphia school system for over 15 years. After raising her daughter, she enjoyed a second teaching career in the Lower Merion school system, where she was again dedicated to teaching challenged students and mentoring young teachers who were very grateful to her. As a consummate hostess and a talented cook and baker, she generously welcomed friends and family for legendary meals on the holidays, birthdays and other special occasions. She had a special way of opening her home and making everyone feel comfortable. She was a loving and caring daughter, wife, mother and grandmother, whose time with her granddaughter Ava was cut far too short. She was a kind and caring listener whose companionship will be sorely missed by many. Funeral arrangements are private. Relatives and friends are invited to attend the live streamed Memorial Service on the Main Line Reform Temple web site on Sunday, May 2 at 1:00 P.M. You may use this link to view
