Nicole’s Family will be hosting a Celebration of Life on Sunday September 3rd from 1 pm to 3pm at Centennial Park East Shelter, 2124 W 9th Street, Lawrence. Everyone who loved Nicole is welcome.

She is survived by her mother Karen Fisher her Father Steve (Charlotte) Swaggerty; three children Brian Jacob Fisher, Savannah Elizabeth Johnson, and Ruby Anna-Leigh Klindt; sister Brandi (Kevin) Woodson, niece Jazmyne, nephew Aeron; brother Phillip Swaggerty, nieces Parker and Fiona; brother Brandon (Emily) Swaggerty, niece Ireland, nephew Braden; sister Ashlei (Chris) Babcock, niece Gretchen, nephews Sander, Reese, and Terk; Grandmothers Nancy Fisher and Belva Swaggerty, many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Nicole was a free spirit who lived her life to the fullest. Her star shined so bright that it burned out way too soon. She struggled with many demons but they didn’t stop her from being a loving, giving, soul. She loved her children, family, and friends and would give them the shirt off her back. She touched many lives. She will be forever missed by all who had the privilege of being touched by her light, especially her closest cousins Mitch, Michael, Amy and Lisa and longtime friend Sarah.
She attended schools in Baldwin City, Lawrence, and Eudora. She also attended Johnson County Community College.
In her youth she attended Coal Creek Gospel Hall and Church of Christ in Baldwin as well as First Church of the Nazarene in Lawrence
She was preceded in death by both Grandfathers: Philip Swaggerty and Ralph Fisher; Aunt Lori Welborn; Uncle Bob Fisher; Cousin Kris McDonald; and Step Father Mark Kemberling.
In Lieu of Flowers the family asks that donations be made to the Nicole Fisher Memorial Fund in care of Rumsey Yost Funeral Home.
