Death By Fentanyl Podcast Series | Angela Marie’s son Nick Rucker Part II

#opioids #fentanyl #poison #murder

In Episode 233, I continue my conversation with Angela Marie Parkerson who shares the life and death of her son Nick Rucker who died by fentanyl poisoning at 24.

Nick Rucker | May 3 1996 – April 23 2021

Nick is survived by his mother Angela Marie, brother Brandon and sisters Courtney and Hannah. He is also loved and missed by his seven nephews and one niece.

Nick, Courtney, Angela Marie, Brandon and Hannah

Nick was a lover of nature and enjoyed the mountains and hiking.

Playful time for Angela Marie and son Nick Rucker

He was murdered in Kentucky and, unfortunately, it has been an uphill battle to gain justice for him.

To build awareness of the fentanyl crisis, Angela Marie created The Never Alone Nick Rucker Foundation, Inc. Please visit to learn more.

Fentanyl Awareness with Debbie Howland, Angela Marie Parkerson, Terry Almanza

A few heartwarming happenings that occurred was Angela Marie and I had scheduled our conversation weeks in advance only to find out that May 3rd (the day we recorded) was Nick’s birthday and I never knew it.

Add to the fact that her fb profile name is Angela Marie, my stepdaughter’s exact name and middle name – Angela Marie Wong.

And during the conversation, Angela tells me that while away on business in Virginia, she spotted a Virginia license plate “MomNick” and how special is that!

There are signs from our angels all the time!
