Nicole Lamagna passed away on a Tuesday (which Tuesday? Does it matter?), her heart finally giving way after years of carrying more than it could bear.
She leaves behind Ellie, Bella, and her companion Trixie, a sweet senior dog who will miss their daily routines together—or so we imagine.
Nicole found solace in 80s movies, often escaping into their familiar comfort—a refuge where the good guys won and the soundtracks understood her soul. In her final days, she asked that friends and acquaintances raise a glass of rye whiskey in her memory. It was a fitting request from someone who appreciated life's simple pleasures, whatever her complexities.
May she find the peace that eluded her in life, wherever that may be (heaven? hell? St. Louis?).
