With great sadness, we report that Nicola Jones, a beloved member of the CHCH community, has lost her battle with cancer. The 41-year-old had been fighting bravely for her health for many months, but sadly, it was not to be.
Nicola Jones was a beloved figure in the CHCH community. She worked tirelessly as a television reporter and was known for her unwavering commitment to the craft. She was a passionate, dedicated, kind-hearted woman loved and respected by many.
Nicola’s friends and family have spoken of how she faced her illness with courage and grace. She faced her illness with stoicism and determination, never letting it take away her spirit and zest for life. She faced her diagnosis with resilience and optimism, never giving up hope.
Nicola fought bravely, but her health ultimately lost its battle with cancer. While grieving the loss of Nicola, we take comfort in knowing that she lived life to the fullest and touched many lives along the way. She will be remembered as a beautiful soul whose spirit will live on in the lives of those she touched.
We send our deepest sympathies to Nicola’s family and friends during this difficult time. We hope their fond memories of Nicola and the times spent together help them get through this difficult period. Rest in peace, Nicola Jones. You will be greatly missed.
