It is with overwhelming sadness and broken hearts that Wayne Nicholls, Donna (Garnett) Nicholls and Nathan & Stephanie Nicholls of Musquash, NB announce the unexpected loss of their beautiful daughter, sister and sister-in-law – “Angela Marie Nicholls”.

Angela was an amazing person full of life and energy, successful, determined, independent and loved by so very many. Angela arrived on May 02, 1985, becoming Donna and Wayne’s first born and one and only daughter who filled their hearts with joy. She was such as intelligent, kind, and loving child who was so excited when her brother Nathan arrived a couple of years later and she loved him with her whole heart– Nathan and Angela were two peas in pod, he followed her everywhere and she liked to protect him, mother him and tell him what to do. Nathan adored his sister and was so proud of her.

Angela enjoyed life to the fullest and was accomplished in many fields having so much to offer the world. She graduated from UNB Fredericton with a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology and furthered her education at Dalhousie University where she graduated with a master’s degree in physiotherapy. An avid soccer player for many years she loved the thrill of competition and made long lasting friends along the way. Angela was an experienced and compassionate physiotherapist who worked in both the public and private sector and respected her clients. Angela was very conscience of her own health which led her into bodybuilding where once again she excelled and won competitions.

Angela travelled the world hiking and climbing mountains, sometimes alone living in hostels on her way to climb Machu Picchu in Peru. Her dad and Zeke their dog joined in on her climb of Mount Carleton, and she also conquered Turtle Mountain, Baily Mountain, Mount Sagamook, Cape Chignect which was a 52 KM hike, not to mention the many Fundy Trails she hiked with her dad and friends. Angela enjoyed everything outdoors, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming and she often went fishing and hunting with her dad and attended many concerts with her mom. She was so independent that it was nothing for her to pack up the SUV grab her dog Chilli and go into the woods hiking and camping for a weekend.

She visited Croatia for a friend’s wedding and even jumped out of perfectly good plane to experience skydiving. She treasured her yearly trip with the Kingston Crew and looked forward to it each year. Angela’s sense of humor was unmatched, and she was known for her honesty so if you didn’t want the truth then don’t ask.
She absolutely adored her family and friends and loved to participate in family gatherings and outings like apple picking, birthday and anniversary celebrations, cutting down the Christmas tree and ugly sweater parties, she really enjoyed the Yankee swaps and loved to dress up for Halloween. You could find Angela during Christmas at the mall volunteering in support of the Salvation Army and recently she applied to volunteer for Friendly Calls through the Red Cross.
