As many have now heard, Nick Handley tragically passed away last weekend. Nick was a beloved member of the Albuquerque theatre community, and it was impossible not to love him. He touched so many lives through his kindness, presence, and the way he made people feel seen and welcomed.

All donations will go directly to Nick’s mother Cecilia to help cover funeral expenses, burial plot, flowers, medical bills, and provide ongoing support for Nick’s family during this difficult time. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help ease some of the financial burden and allow the focus to remain on grieving, remembering, and honoring Nick’s life. Cecilia and Nick’s partner Ryan are now facing not only deep heartbreak, but also the practical burdens that come with such an unexpected loss. Support from friends, loved ones, and the wider community will mean so much as they navigate the days ahead. Every donation will be a meaningful way to help carry some of that burden.

Stories and memories of Nick are also welcome.
