To the average person reading the Times obituaries, the life of Masie Nicholls was nothing extraordinary. She was a music teacher at Fitzjohn’s Primary School in Hampstead, London. She loved music and travel. She enjoyed foraging and watching Gogglebox. And she was survived by her husband of 40+ years, Martin. But to Martin, she was the most extraordinary, fascinating, and loving woman ever to set foot on God’s earth. She was his everything, his guiding light and safety net, and he is the only one who can give the world the truest picture of her life. The only question is: what is he to do with his life now that she’s gone?
