Nanci J. Kasischke

Nanci Jean Kasischke, 63 of Methuen, passed away Thursday, March 25, 2021 at Mass General Hospital due to complications from heart surgery. Nanci was born August 5, 1957 to Thomas and Jeanne (Hogan) Minghella and grew up in Andover, MA. She was a 1975 graduate of Andover High School. Post high school, she worked in various business positions for Andover Medical, Medtronic, Lotus, Globalware Solutions, and OEM Connect.
