Sadness spread across Fairfield County this weekend in the wake of the death of Nicole Somma.

The 38-year-old Norwalk resident died peacefully at home on Friday, Oct. 10, according to her obituary on the Raymond Funeral Home website.

"Nicole WON her fight and is now at peace," he said in a Facebook post Saturday morning, Oct. 11. "She never lost her smile or fierce spirit all the way thru. She is my hero, soulmate, wife, lover, friend and inspiration in life FOREVER & ETERNITY."
