Nicole Marie Allar

It is with great sadness that the family of Nicole Marie Allar announce her passing on Friday, September 27, 2024 at the age of 48. Nicole will be lovingly remembered by her two daughters, Peyton and Ryleigh Thomson; parents Robert "Ernie" Allar, Penelope "Penny" (Peltonen) Allar (Dr. David Kelling); brother Tsukasa Miyazato; sister Tracie Skoglund (Ronald H Skoglund Jr); nephew Daiki Miyazato; niece KaeAnne Skoglund; her love Brady Gunderson; and numerous Uncles, Aunts, and Cousins. She wouldn't want us to forget her four legged friends; Jax, Kenny and Bower.

Nicole grew up in Cable, WI. She attended Cable Elementary School and was a graduate of Drummond High School in 1994. Through those years, she made many lifelong friends and loved them all dearly. Nicole went on to college at UW-Stout where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree in Graphic Design. In 2002, Nicole and Kevin Thomson welcomed their first daughter Peyton into the world. Their second daughter, Ryleigh, blessed them in 2004. Nicole lived her life for these two beautiful girls. They were her world, her greatest accomplishment, her greatest pride. She left us knowing she did everything possible to ensure her girls have a loving, happy memory of her and that they are loved.

In 2007, Nicole decided to change careers and graduated from Northwestern Health Sciences University in 2008 with a degree in Professional Massage Therapy. For the next 16 years, Massage Therapy brought her great joy as she knew her hands were helping heal her clients' pains as well as bringing relaxation and comfort to their lives.

Nicole had many favorite things. When asked to write what brought her joy and purpose she wrote my girls, my family, my friends, my pets, music, art, laughing, dancing, listening to others stories, having great conversations, herbal tea, and really good food. She forgot to add flowers, she loved flowers. She loved to x-county ski, hike, bike and walk the local trails. A personal goal of hers was to complete the Chequamagon Short and Fat Tire Race. She did so in 2022, meeting her time goal and was only covered in 3 layers of mud. Another favorite pastime of Nicole's was to walk along the south shores of Lake Superior and collect pretty rocks. Most of all, she loved to sit on her Lake Owen dock and enjoy the beauty and quiet that surrounded her.

While our hearts mourn the loss of Nicole, we know she is pain free. The past year and half, she faced her journey with ovarian cancer with remarkable strength, resilience and courage.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, October 12, 2024 at the Cable Congregational United Church of Christ (UCC) in Cable, WI. Visitation will begin at 1:00pm, service at 2:00pm and a gathering of friends and family to follow at the Cable Community Center.

The family wishes to send a special thank you to the staff at Essentia Health St Mary's Hospital, Duluth, MN, 18th floor, for their compassionate and loving care.
