Nanny was raised and educated in West Virginia. On September 8, 1944 she married Sam Iaquinto and together in 1946 they moved to Flint, MI. She was a very religious woman beginning and ending each day with prayer and prayer to her maker. Nanny was a long time member of Sacred Heart, St. Agnes and currently St. Charles and Helena Catholic Churches. She was also a life time member of the Italian American Woman’s Club. Nanny learned and mastered the art of cooking from her immigrant mother and continued to daily grace the family table with Italian Cuisine and her hard chicken.
