Dates
Eugenia (Jean) Cunningham Bolz, better known as Nanny by all, met her heavenly Father on March 1, 2020, surrounded by love, laughter, and comfort. Eugenia was born November 13, 1934 in Miles, Texas, one of four children to Dick and Bessie Cunningham. Her siblings include brother Glenn Cunningham, sisters Vena Benes, and Carolyn Jewell. The family moved to San Angelo and there her father started his business "Dix Key Shop".
She married Steven Bolz on March 13, 1964. Steve was in the Air Force and they were stationed at Elmendorf, Alaska, Karamursel, Turkey, and Pensacola, Florida. Wherever they were stationed, Jean worked a variety of jobs including the Aero Club in Alaska and the Officer's Club in Turkey. She and Steve enjoyed bowling. After Steve's retirement from the Air Force, they returned to San Angelo where Jean worked at Ridgeway Florist.
Nanny never met a stranger and her quick wit could bring a smile to everyone "Amen, brother Ben, shot at a rooster, hit a hen". Her love and devotion to her family was undeniably her greatest gift that extended to all of her nieces and nephews. She also had a great love for all God’s creatures.
She is survived by daughters Melissa (Charlie) Beard and Brenda (Rick) Lorey; grandchildren Kim (Levi) Razics, Cassandra (David) Martinez, Clinton (Heather) Everhardt, Aaron (Aisulu) Everhardt, Trisha (Travis) Britton and Charles and Molly Beard; great-grandchildren Angel, Donavan and Jasmine Martinez, Tresint and Gissele Everhardt, Kaden and Yasmina Everhardt and Luke and Willow Britton. She was welcomed at Heaven’s gates by her husband of 53 years, Steven Bolz, son James Everhardt, her parents, and her siblings and their spouses; Glenn (Lois) Cunningham, Vena (Jimmy) Benes and Carolyn (Wallace) Jewell. Upon her arrival to Heaven, we’re sure every door and every gate has been unlocked.
Visitation will be held on Thursday, March 5 from 6-8 pm at Harper Funeral Home. Graveside services will take place on Friday, March 6 at 2:00 pm at Miles Cemetery in Miles, Texas
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Cancer Society, the Alzheimer’s Foundation, or Cassie’s Place in San Angelo.
Great appreciation goes out to all the staff at ''The Springs" for all the love and care they gave to our Nanny.
