Nicole M. Stelley

April 14, 1981 - January 31, 2026 

Loving daughter of Brian and Michele (nee Papero) Stelley; dear sister of Jodi Stelley (Reid Frick); cherished aunt of Adrian; adored niece of Marian (late Robert) Delaney; devoted partner of Raymond Stringfellow; treasured fur-mama to Pepper, Wisdom and Bella. Nicole was warm-hearted, a people person and animal lover. Her fur babies meant the world to her. She loved Jesus and sharing her faith with everyone. She was always willing to listen to, and pray with anyone who needed her to. She loved painting, whether it was of hers or a friends fur baby, or rocks to leave for people to find and be encouraged, bring a smile. She left rocks in the garden at Roswell many times. Nicole was an avid sports fan. She loved the Bills, and the Chiefs were her second favorite team. Sundays were for watching church, then every game on TV. She was funny, positive and a joy to be around.
