Nicholas Ryan Mainardi, of Rio Rancho, New Mexico, passed away on July 24, 2025, at the age of 31.

Born on June 8, 1994, Nicholas was a driven and passionate individual whose energy and creativity were evident in everything he did. As an entrepreneur and the proud co-owner of NM Wall Covering, he built a business that reflected his dedication and craftsmanship.

Outside of work, Nicholas lived for adventure. He found joy in off-road sports, especially dirt biking and riding ATVs. A true car enthusiast, he spent countless hours modifying and maintaining his vehicles, always seeking ways to make them perform at their best.

Nicholas will be remembered most for his caring spirit and generous heart. He was the kind of person who would give without hesitation, always putting others before himself. His kindness left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

He is survived by his loving wife, Natalie, and his beloved stepchildren Bailey, Bryce, and Brixton. He also leaves behind his mother, Denise; his father, Michael; and his sister, Danielle.

Nicholas’s warmth, energy, and kindness will be deeply missed and forever cherished by all who loved him.
