With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Diane Egan Nicholas, a remarkable, kind, and nurturing mother and grandmother, who left us on November 26, 2025. Born on May 4, 1954, Diane was renowned for her unselfish, strong, and resilient spirit.

Diane did not want a funeral service, but we appreciate all the love and support and encourage everyone to share memories of Diane on this memorial website. We kindly ask that no donations or flowers be sent to the family. 

Diane instilled in all who knew her an invaluable lesson: to love and take care of one's family. Among her greatest accomplishments, she treasured her three children and four grandchildren, who served as a testament to her incredible ability to nurture and care.

Survived by her daughters, Diane Nicholas and Rockelle Branzetti, her sons, Jimmy Nicholas and son in law Anthony Ruggerio, her grandsons Justin Ruggerio, and granddaughters Brittney Ruggerio, Gianna Branzetti, and Alyssa Branzetti. She gracefully impacted their lives, always filling the room with her tender and fierce love, leaving them with beautiful, precious, and unforgettable moments.

Her legacy of kindness, generosity, selflessness, and love remains etched in the hearts of her beloved family members. She was known for her feisty Irish temper, which added a unique spark to her personality. As a constant ray of light in their lives, she often sang "You Are My Sunshine" to her children and grandchildren, a testament to her unfailing optimism and spirit.

Diane Egan Nicholas was a beacon of assistance to anyone in need, always ready to offer a meal or a warm welcome to anyone who stopped by. Her remarkable life is an inspiring reminder of the power of kindness and love.

Always remembered and forever missed, Diane Egan Nicholas' spirit continues to be a guiding light to everyone who was fortunate enough to be a part of her life.
