Christina "Nicole" DeLoach, born June 14, 1993 and passed away March 15, 2024 at the young age of 30 years old. She is survived by her beloved son Aricin Shay Hughes, his father Ashton Hughes and his family, a cousin, Addison and her baby Cicily, and many close friends including Jamie Liotto and her family. She was loved by many. Nicole was a woman that lived for her son. Their favorite things to do together was eating sushi and watching movies. She played Fortnite with him, even though he had to "carry" her. She was a woman like no other. Nicole was very outspoken and always said what was on her mind, regardless of whose feelings she might hurt. She was proud but yet humble of what she had accomplished in her life thus far. Nicole was a mother, friend, aunt, sister, granddaughter and daughter. She thought she could conquer anything with just ambition and faith. Nicole was preceded in death by her grandparents Sydney and Patricia DeLoach. Visitation at McKneely Funeral Home, Amite, from 1:00PM until religious services at 3:00PM on Friday, March 22, 2024. The family requests donations to Nicole's GoFundMe Account . For an online guestbook, visit http://www.mckneelys.com.
