Nina Fedorovna Franciocci

1982 - 2017

In loving memory

Cherished Wife, adoring Mother, Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Friend, Leader and Respected Colleague, has left us far too soon.

Nina Franciocci, 35, passed away in peace and grace on Friday evening, September 8 at Methodist Hospital in Sugar Land, Texas. She is survived by her husband, Emmanuel, sons Maximus Alexander and Luka Mateo. She is also survived by Mother, Luidmila Mikhailovna Trofimova, Father, Fedor Alexandrovich Trofimova, Sister, Margarita Fedorovna Trofimova, and Niece, Anastasia Trofimova.

Nina was born in Russia and moved to Gainesville, Texas to complete her education on a student exchange program in 1996. She attended college at Texas Woman's University in Denton; earning her Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and Management prior to moving to Houston in 2005.

After graduation, she began her career at Valeant Pharmaceuticals (formerly Biovail) as a Specialty Territory Manager. In March 2007, she married the love of her life, Emmanuel Franciocci and started building a family.

Nina continued her career at Merz North America as a Territory Manager and quickly advanced into the role of Area Business Director, West.

Funeral services will be held Friday, September 15 at 11 am at the Settegast-Kopf Funeral Home at 15015 Southwest Freeway, Sugarland, TX. A Celebration of Life luncheon will be hosted in her honor beginning at 12.30 pm in a Ballroom at the Sugarland Marriott Town Square, located at 16090 City Walk, Sugar Land, TX.

Nina was completely devoted to her family, community and job; balancing all effortlessly with style and the highest level of character. She also enjoyed working out, but her family was her greatest love.

We will always remember her infectious smile, sparkling eyes and caring soul.

Our hearts are broken dear Nina; but the gift of your warmth and love you so generously shared will serve as comfort and will never fade from our memory of you. Peaceful rest, beautiful one.

Our hearts go out to Manny, Max and Luka during this extremely difficult time. We cannot understand Nina's sudden departure from this world and one can only imagine what this loss means to Manny and Nina's family.

Nina will be sorely missed. She certainly left a mark on everyone around her. She was a beautiful, sophisticated and graceful young lady! We know Max, Luka and Manny were the center of her universe. Whenever we met Nina she was always thinking, discussing and planning details about the care and raising of her children. One could not help but notice the playful relationship between Manny and Nina (till the end), which spoke to their love for each other. The photographs on this website beautifully display Nina's joy for life and living with her family and friends.

Manny, you have a long road ahead of you and know you have your support around you in the years ahead.

Here are a few lines that come to mind - extracted from a poem (and adapted to Nina) by WH Auden titled Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone:

She was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song..

Hugs
Mariam and Ken Rolston

I'm privileged to have shared many happy moments and memories with the remarkable, fun loving and beautiful Nina. Her legacy continues through her two wonderful boys that I will try my best to convert to Manchester United supporters instead of Arsenal.
You will be missed Nina but certainly never forgotten. Devastated and bewildered at the very thought that you are gone in body but certainly not spirit and hope.
God bless you
Keith

Manni,
I know words can only do so much right now, but Caroline and I are very sorry for your loss. Although we only got to meet Nina on a couple of occasions, it was quickly obvious what a wonderful person she was and listening to you talk about her made it that much more obvious. She will be missed. Maxi, Luca, and you are in our thoughts and prayers. If you ever need any help or support please reach out to us. Continued prayers in this time of need and down the road.

I remember the day Manni told us he was going to propose to you after only such a short time. What an amazing decision he made. You are the love of his life and his better half. We truly cherished the time we spent with you, Manni, Max and Luka and will miss you dearly. Your smile, laughter, generosity and thoughtfulness impacted all those around you. It is heartbreaking that you have been taken away from us to soon. Rest in peace knowing you were loved and that we will all be here to continue loving your family as our own.

September 13, 2017

You are not alone during this time of sorrow and pain. May God give your family strength and comfort to help you endure this loss. As you remember your beloved one, the God of peace give you comfort and peace in every way. May you find Strength from the love and care that surrounds you and comfort in the memories that you shared. Please accept my sincere condolences. 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Nina, you will be greatly missed. You were such a caring, energetic, humble, beautiful person with a wonderful sense of humor; but most of all, a loving and wonderful friend.

She was the personification of elegance, who quietly led with poise and grace. I was blessed to call her my manager, but most of all, my friend. Death can never take her presence away.....She believed in me and that will stay with me for the rest of my days. I love you Nina.

Nina, I can't believe you are gone! You are loved by many and respected by even more. You earned my respect and admiration when you were in college and I first got to know you. You were an amazing student and a warm loving person to all. You had a great sense of humor and I know you loved to dance. Emmanuel and the boys will miss you so very much as will all who knew you. You left us all far too soon.
