Nancy Carolyn Felsberg Bergstresser, 83, of Madison, AL passed away peacefully Wednesday November 29, 2023, at Huntsville Hospital. She was surrounded by her husband, two children, daughter-in-law, and four grandchildren.
Born in 1940 in Camden, NJ, she was a long-time Madison resident who called many states home before settling here.
