Nancy LaFon Gore Hunger (January 23, 1938 – July 11, 1984) was the older sister of Vice-President Al Gore.
She was the elder of two children of Albert Gore, Sr., a U.S. Representative who later served as a U.S. Senator from Tennessee, and Pauline LaFon Gore, one of the first women to graduate from Vanderbilt University Law School. Gore's paternal ancestors were Scots-Irish who first settled in Virginia in the mid 17th-century and moved to Tennessee after the Revolutionary War. Nancy LaFon Gore died of lung cancer in 1984 after battling the disease for two years. Nancy grew up on a farm where her family grew tobacco, and started smoking as a teenager. Concerned for the contribution of smoking to her death from lung cancer, her family stopped growing tobacco after her death.
