Robert Brandin Reed Nichols was born in Mountain Home, ID, December 23rd, 1989, to his mother Shannon Michelle Davis and his father Ronney Del Nichols. Brandin sadly passed away October 19th, 2022, at a local hospital in Boise, ID, at the young age of 32. Brandin was born into a very large, loving, and supportive family who all played a part in the wonderful, generous, thoughtful, and caring man Brandin would become. Brandin would later marry the love of his life, Stephanie Nichols, and have 5 beautiful children to share his life with.
Brandin was a very hard working, ambitious, kind, generous, caring, and loving person who was always trying to make life fun for all who knew him. Brandin’s ultimate life goal was to create a family that he could give the world to and then some. Brandin was a great provider who made sure his family wanted for nothing and had everything.
Brandin and Stephanie together created Lawn Ninja Landscape and Concrete that had become a very successful business and was even put in a magazine as the top #1 business of the year. This company provided the means to do the things they loved as a family.
When Brandin was not working, he enjoyed helping his boys with all things sports, riding dirt bikes, and teaching them how to fix things. His girls had him wrapped around their little fingers. He loved making them feel beautiful, let them do his nails and make up, and loved being involved with their gymnastics. He could make anyone laugh and enjoyed making jokes and funny videos on social media all the time, especially with his children, and often at the expense of his sisters or other family and friends.
Brandin also had a passion for MMA where he made lifelong friends that he treated as family. He also enjoyed camping, fishing, hunting, and taking family trips (especially to Disneyland). Brandin was a father, husband, son, brother, friend and much, much more.
Although his time on earth was cut way too short, he touched the lives of everyone around him and had an impact on lives of everyone he knew. Brandin was so compassionate; he would give you the shirt off his back if needed. He will surely be missed and remembered by many.
Brandin has left behind a kind, compassionate, and supportive wife of 12 years and 5 beautiful children: Stephanie Nichols, LaRayna 16, Jayden 13, Bryceson 11, Athena 9, and the baby of the family, Alazaya 7.
Brandin is survived by Shannon Davis-Mother, Robert Stace-Father, John Davis-Stepfather, Rayvin (Justin) Lough-Sister, Payge (Brandon) Frederick-Sister, Sarah Burgess-Half Sister, John Davis-Step Brother, Izzy Davis-Step Sister, Dana and Gloria Barclay-Grandparents, Curt and Linda Meccia-Grandparents, Nikki and Joe Sievers-Aunt & Uncle, Mike and Dianne Barclay-Aunt & Uncle, and numerous other cousins, nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and friends.
