Posted on April 2, 2009 by Staff

Nancy Mae Walker Pruden, 87, of Burlington, Chapel Hill, Edenton and Nags Head passed away on March 28, 2009 in Hillsborough, NC.

There will be a celebration of her life at Crooks Corner in Chapel Hill on April 4, 2009 at 11 a.m. and a memorial service on April 18, 2009 at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Edenton, NC. Services will be handled by Walker’s Funeral Home in Chapel Hill, NC.

Mrs. Pruden was born on November 4, 1921 and raised in Burlington, NC, the daughter of Dr. Walter E. and Carrie Mae Walker.

She was devoted to her family and friends and liked nothing better than to gather with her husband, Jack McMullan Pruden, her children and friends on the back porch of the Pruden cottage at Nags Head. Mrs. Pruden was known for her beautiful singing voice and was often accompanied on the piano by her husband. She is remembered for her sense of humor and her love of a good story.

Mrs. Pruden is survived by three children, J.C. Bagwell, III of Tallahassee, FL, McMullan (Mack) Pruden, Jr. of Chapel Hill and Walker Pruden of Waves, NC; and three grandchildren, Sophie Rose Pruden, Jack Pruden and Sam Pruden. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jack, and her daughter, Nancy Pruden, of Chapel Hill.
