Amanda Kloots is using today to celebrate her late husband, Nick Cordero.

Exactly two years ago, the Broadway star made headlines for his sudden and tragic death from Covid-19 complications. Now, Kloots is honoring him with a heartfelt message to all those suffering loss. She wrote, alongside a slideshow of pictures featuring Cordero,

"There hasn't been a day I haven't missed him. Nick was a presence. His smile and laugh lit up a room. He loved everyone and was a great friend to anyone that knew him."

Cordero and Kloots share a now eight-year-old son together, Elvis. Kloots featured him prominently in the slideshow, as well as in other posts honoring his father.

Kloots took the anniversary as a way to share a story that helped her reframe her grief and find peace. She wrote about a dream a friend of hers shared, posting,

"My girlfriend told me about a beautiful dream she had. We were all at a party and Nick was there looking happy and radiant. When she asked him why he was there he said, ‘What do you mean? Today is my birthday. It's the one day I get to come back and celebrate with everyone I love.'"

The dream completely changed how Kloots views the anniversary of her husband's death. She now refers to the date as his "new birth," explaining,

"Birth and death have so many similarities. I can't possibly know what's on the other side but he was sending me a clear message. This idea brought a positive light to a otherwise dark day. I decided then that I will celebrate with him today and always on July 5th. I love you honey. I miss you more than life."
