Life story

Erin Nicole (Lewis) Regis, age 47 of Hickory Corners, passed away at her home on Friday, January 9, 2026, after several years of battling cancer - not once giving up the fight.

Erin was the kind of person who made life feel lighter just by being present. She had a radiant smile that lit up any room, an easy laugh, and a way of showing up for people that made them feel seen and valued. No matter how busy life became, Erin always found time for others.

Erin graduated from Delton Kellogg High School (1996) and Western Michigan University (2004), with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. She had a deep love for movement and expression. She spent years dancing—tap, jazz, lyrical, and more—through Shari Rarick’s School of Dance in Battle Creek and Expressions Dance Center in Hastings, and later found joy in running, completing several 5K and 10K races. She was known for embracing life’s moments with enthusiasm and positivity.

Erin was employed at Jason M. Corradini, DDS, in Richland.

Faith was important to Erin. She regularly volunteered at the Radiant Church Bookstore and carried her faith into her everyday life through kindness, compassion, and service to others.

Above all else, Erin loved her family fiercely. She was a proud and devoted mother who created lasting memories with her children through laughter, encouragement, and unconditional love. Her children were her greatest joy. She was a devoted soccer mom, cheering loudly from the sidelines and always made time to attend her children’s numerous sports events, band, and color-guard performances.

Erin is survived by her husband, Tommy Regis; her children, Khries Regis, Zachary Regis, Kami Regis, and Zander Regis; her mother and stepfather, Diana and Gary Robinson; her stepmother, Wendy Lewis; her siblings, Eric (Kelly) Lewis and Karen (Sam) Hastings; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins, and many dear friends who will miss her deeply. She was preceded in death by her father, Greg Lewis.

Those who knew Erin will remember her as strong, loving, beautiful inside and out, and a sexy badass who loved big dorky guys. Her laughter was contagious, her presence comforting, and her spirit unforgettable.
