Nicole Renee Krause Richards, who was a loving wife, daughter, mother, and grandmother to her family, earned her wings on November 29, 2021. Nicole was born in Dallas, Texas on June 4, 1974 to her loving father Fred C. Krause III, who preceded her in death, and is survived by her mother, Dixie Krause. Nicole was an MA for a few years in San Antonio, Texas after going to medical school for three years. She was a caring person whose smile lit up the whole room. She was giving to all, whether it was a stranger or her family, always trying to make a positive impact on the people she connected with. Some of her favorite hobbies and activities included watching her favorite series' Supernatural and Harry Potter, cooking with her family, working on cars, and blasting her favorite bands such as Metallica, KISS, Motley Cr�e, Daft Punk, and Guns N' Roses. She loved nothing more than her family. Nicole loved to go hiking with her family, including their sweet pup, in the mountains of Colorado, to the trails and plains of Texas. She also enjoyed her Bingo games, just like her father. Nicole is survived by her husband of twenty-two years, Mark Richards who was her partner in crime, her best friend, and the love of her life; her three siblings, Darryl Krause, Tammy Krause, and Sheila Fleming; her four children, Christian Talley, Zoe Richards, Gabrielle Richards, and Arianna Richards; and her three grandchildren, Andrew Talley, Skyler Talley, and Kian Gillaspia.
