Jasmine Jayde Nanclares

Jasmine Jayde Nanclares tragically passed away on November 15th, 2025, on her way home to Shakopee, Minnesota. She was 29 years old.
Born on February 19th, 1996, to a single mother, Jasmine grew up with the example of hard work, self-improvement, and providing for others.
As the oldest daughter, Jasmine, dedicated her life to helping others. She graduated from the Shakopee school district with a passion for the arts and health sciences. Though there were many opportunities throughout her life, she most often found herself helping people.
Jasmine's absence will be felt by all. She leaves behind her mother, Brenda Figueroa, who loved her more than the world; her stepfather, Wayne Figueroa who was always there to support her; her younger sister, Netanya Mascorro; her brother, Edrjel Mascorro; her nephew, Zaviah Vasquez; all of whom she raised as her own.
She is most notably survived by her own daughter, Izabella Jayde Kukacka, who is old enough to remember how much her mom loved her. She worked hard to provide the childhood she wasn't able to have for her nephew and her daughter.
Jasmine had a lot of darkness in her life, there were many instances in her story where giving up was the easier option, yet she chose to shine brightly for others. Her magnetic energy and infectious laughter could light up a room. Though she struggled constantly with death, when she was alive, she genuinely and unapologetically lived.
Jasmine was a beacon of light for many, a constant fountain of empathy and kindness. She will be greatly missed.
Jasmine's celebration of life will be by invitation. McNearney-Schmidt Funeral and Cremation has been honored to serve Jasmine and her family.
