Nicole Christine Rupp, age 31, of Stuart, Florida died unexpectedly on November 4, 2020.   To be interred with Nicole is her premature infant daughter, Savannah Nicole.

Born Nicole Janocsko in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on May 5, 1989 she is the daughter of Jeff Janocsko and Christine Erwin. She was raised in Port St. Lucie and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  She attended St. Anastasia Catholic School and graduated from John Carroll High School in Fort Pierce.

She was an adventurous kid who enjoyed camping, snow skiing, horseback riding, boating and cheerleading.  She loved to travel and made friends everywhere she went.  She was always careful never to leave anyone out, especially her younger siblings.

Nicole married her high-school sweetheart, Alex.  Together they loved the outdoors and enjoyed hunting, fishing, boating, gardening, and time at the beach or park with family and friends.  She was extremely creative and could often be found drawing, sketching, doing arts and crafts with her son, and making personal gifts for others.  She was extremely creative in the kitchen and a talented cook.  She was a born party-planner.  Her lively spirit turned the simplest life events into the most grand, memorable occasions!  One can only imagine the size of her Pinterest and Etsy boards!

All Nicole wanted out of life was to be a mom.  Her son, Dylan, was the light of her life.  They loved spending time at the Children's Museum, Florida Oceanographic Society, and any zoo.  Surrounded by a sisterhood of other young moms and girlfriends, she loved the playdates where they'd share the latest news about baby milestones, take walks, and spend time watching their children play at Indian Riverside Park.

Nicole was living her best life as a wife and mother. She was a beacon of light to everyone who knew her.  She had a beautiful laugh and a compassionate heart.  She was the best Big Sister, both fun-loving and protective; always willing to lend an ear and never afraid to rein them in when needed.  She was the most genuine daughter, sister, wife, mother, and friend.

Nicole is survived by her husband, Alex Rupp; 2-year old son, Dylan Jeffrey; father, Jeff Janocsko (stepmother Kathy Post-Janocsko); mother, Christine Erwin (stepfather Todd Erwin); sister, Natalie Janocsko, and siblings Max Erwin, Kassia Janocsko, and Joshua Janocsko; maternal grandparents, Dorothy Zink (Dottie); paternal grandparents, Robert (Butch) and Rosemary Burke; step-grandparents, Bob and 'Butch' Post and Pauline Erwin; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and a circle of loving friends.   She adored animals, especially her 2 dogs, Sargeant and Scarlet, and cat, Chilly.
