Nicole Marie Leatherman

Nicole Marie Leatherman went home to the Lord on the morning of June 7, 2024 at her home in Killeen, TX. Just five days earlier, she celebrated her 45th birthday with her husband Dustin and daughter Aneesa. Nicole was employed as a dispatch manager with The Driver Provider based in Phoenix, AZ. She was with the company for over 10 years. After the family moved to Texas eight years ago, Nicole started working from home when in Texas, but traveled much throughout the year to manage things in person at the office in Arizona.

Nicole loved her family and her dogs. She also enjoyed taking care of her plants and flowers. She certainly had a green thumb and plants flourished under her care. Nicole was very creative and spent some of her spare time making decorative wreaths for all seasons and occasions, and she also loved playing Wii sports.

Nicole is survived by her husband Dustin Leatherman, daughter Aneesa Pletcher, father Howard Pletcher, mother Denise (Art) Cruz, mother-in-law Karen Leatherman, sister-in-law Lindsay (Michael) Tice, and several aunts, uncles and cousins. She was also Aunt Nicole to Grace, Benjamin, John, Rachel, Sarah, Andrew, Nathanael, Daniel & Hannah Tice. Nicole was preceded in death by her maternal and paternal grandparents, and her father-in-law Wayne Leatherman (aka Trouble).
