Nancy A. (Vermillion) Miano, 91 of Liverpool passed away peacefully on Friday, February 17, 2023 to join the “love of her life”, Robert J. Miano, Sr. for one more dance.

Nancy attended the former North High School and was employed as an Office Manager at M&M Transportation for fifteen years and retired as a Sales Coordinator for Bristol Myers Squibb ( a Manufacturer of Veterinary Medicine) after ten years of service.
A devoted Catholic, Nancy was a longtime communicant of Assumption Church and a graduate of the “Formation for Ministry Program” and was commissioned by the Diocese of Syracuse serving Assumption Church for many years.
Nancy served in many capacities at Assumption Church including the title of Office Manager, Director of Religious Education for over 40 years, Lector, Eucharistic Minister, Sacristan, Teacher of Religious Education, volunteer in many capacities and was considered a true “Pillar of Assumption”.
