Nancy Knott

Ms. Nancy Knott, age 80, of Dover, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on Saturday, November 7, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. She was born on September 18, 1946, to the late Eugene and Amelia Provow, who were blessed with a beloved daughter.

Ms. Nancy was a loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother who cherished her family above all else. She found her greatest joy in cooking for those she loved and welcoming everyone home to gather around her table for a home-cooked meal. Family gatherings were the heart of her home, and nothing brought her more happiness than having her loved ones together. Her home was a place of warmth, love, and fellowship, and the memories made there will forever be treasured.

Ms. Nancy was also a faithful servant of the Lord and a devoted member of the Dover Church of Christ. She dearly enjoyed the fellowship of her church family, her many friendships, and participating in the activities of the church. Her faith was an important part of her life, and she lived with a heart devoted to her family, her friends, and her Lord.

Though her family will deeply miss her loving presence, the warmth of her home, and the special gatherings she so lovingly brought together, they find comfort in knowing that this is not goodbye forever. They hold close the promise of seeing her again and the hope of eternal life through Christ.

The words of Proverbs 31:30-31 beautifully reflect the life Ms. Nancy lived:

"Charm is deceitful, and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates."

In addition to her parents, Ms. Nancy is preceded in death by her husband, Michael Knott; brothers, Billy Provow and Ray Provow; sisters, Aster Burnett and Faye Smith.

She leaves behind her precious family, son, Jeff Knott; daughter, Tonya Spergin (Randy); grandsons, Jeremiah Wojtal (Kerrsti) and Shawn Spergin; great granddaughters, Ellisyn and Hollyn Wojtal; and her precious dog, Millie

A visitation and funeral service will be held at Dover Church of Christ on Saturday, November 14, 2026 with the visitation beginning at 11:00 am with funeral service to follow at 1:00 pm. Bro. John Polk and Randy Spergin will officiate the service with burial to follow at Stewart County Memorial Gardens. Serving as pallbearers are Jeremiah Wojtal, Shawn Spergin, Randy Spergin, Nathan Stafford, Mitchell Howell, and Adam Zellers.
