It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved sister, Nicol Eileen Roby, who passed away on February 22, 2024 the age of 38.

Nicci, as she was fondly known, was born on July 11, 1985 in Ukiah. She grew up in Eureka alongside her siblings, and attended Eureka High and Zoe Barnum high school, where she graduated.

Nicci was a loving mother, sister and friend, always willing to lend a helping hand and a listening ear. Her warm personality, infectious smile and generous heart made her an instant favorite among all who knew her. She was crazy at times, but she was never fake.

Despite facing many challenges in her life, Nicci remained resilient and persevered through it all. She was a fighter ‘til she couldn’t anymore.

Nicci is survived by her husband, Phelix Roby, her sons Oscar Roby and Justin Roby , her brothers John Urich III and Dustin Whitten, nieces and nephews Faith Thomas, Savannah Hodge, Avi Hodge, Ivy Urich, John Urich IV and a host of other relatives and friends.

We will miss her dearly, but take comfort in the fact that she is now in a better place, free from pain and suffering. May her soul rest in eternal peace.

There will be a celebration of life on May 3, 2024 at 1011 Waterfront Dr. at 1 p.m.
