Nicholas Robert Hoy, of Vienna, died Sunday, Sept. 10, due to a medical emergency, according to his obituary and a GoFundMe page.
A GoFundMe for Nick's fiance, Haley Benetti, said the cause of death was an unexplained medical emergency. The campaign had raised more than $12,800 as of Thursday, Sept. 14.
Nick was a standout athlete growing up, having won the Northern Virginia Regional Championship in wrestling and played lacrosse for the Virginia State Championship.
He went on to earn his bachelor's degree in business administration from Old Dominion University, where he met Haley, then his MBA from George Mason University.
Nick and Haley were building a life together and got engaged in June 2022, according to Nick's obituary. They were set to marry on Sept. 16, 2023.
"We are heartbroken by the loss of Nick and recognize his unwavering love and support for Haley," the GoFundMe says. "It goes without saying that Nick would want nothing more than for Haley to have the opportunity to heal before returning to her 1st grade classroom.
"Nick's sudden death has left a void in our hearts that can never be filled. We are devastated by this loss, and your support during this time will mean the world to Haley and the many who loved him."
