It is with the deepest and most profound sorrow that I share the death of my most beloved daughter, friend, cuddlemonkey, intellectual sparring partner, Eurovision heckler, cheerleader, expert critic, train expert, and absolutely fucking masterful Rickroller, Nora. She passed away on the 23rd of April, 2026.

Nora was the light of my life. She did not live in an easy light, but the best people never do. She was extraordinary. I have never met anyone smarter, funnier, better, or more deserving of a long, good life.

As she was a teenager, I am sure I was not her best friend - but that's not how things are supposed to work.

But she was mine.

She was kind, she was giving, she was utterly empathetic, and she taught me more about myself and how to live than anyone on Earth.

I got 18 years. It will never, ever be enough.

She was my family, my light, my love, my heart.

I miss her with every cell of my being.

Norabear, you can close your eyes now, love. It's alright.
