Amanda Kloots is grateful to those who are determined to keep the memory of her late husband, Nick Cordero alive forever.
Nearly three years after the Broadway star died of complications related to the COVID-19 virus, his wife has shown fans one of the many ways his memory has been immortalized. According to the mother-of-two’s recent social media updates, a restaurant carved her name on one of their many stalls, acknowledging her presence even in death.

From the time her late husband began battling with COVID-19 to years after his death, Kloots has been providing multiple updates for her fans and loved ones. In an update shared over the weekend, the fitness instructor uploaded four photos featuring her at New York restaurant Cafe Fiorello with loved ones.
While the first image shows Kloots looking at the engraved sign with a smile, the second slide reveals that the words engraved on the gold plaque read, “This Table Is Dedicated To Michael & Dennis Basso. In honor of Nick Cordero.”
A third picture shows the dancer pointing to the sign with a more pronounced smile before she and her fellow guests pose for the camera from their various seats. After emphasizing that she sat in her late husband’s booth the night before, “The Talk” co-host recalled that she’s been visiting Cafe Fiorello since she “moved to NYC in 2000!”
After years of walking around and staring at everyone “longingly” he could afford to buy their food, the cafe eventually became “his favorite place to go on certain occasions”. It later became her and Cordero’s place, where they would “sit outside, enjoying the view of Lincoln Center over an Aperol spritz on a summer day.” In the winter, they would “curl up in the booth and share pasta and parmigiana.”

The location became so special that Cordero used it to inform her that “he’s “going to marry me!” – which was news to me because we were on vacation.” He praised the venue for honoring the “Bullets Over Broadway” star “with a booth when he died.” The television personality concluded, writing:
“He’ll think it’s the greatest thing. I love to go back, eat here and visit his table. A very special time.”
Although Kloots hid the number of likes on the post, fans let her know their thoughts in the comments, with one calling her “The Good Wife” thanks to the brightness of her heart that comes from her love for Cordero.
“And every time you come back and visit his booth, he’s there with you always and forever,” a second person told her, while a third agreed, “What a beautiful way to honor Nick.” A fourth Instagram user sent Kloots a hug, adding, “A beautiful tribute & way to feel the love & special bond you will have forever with Nick.”
Kloots has evoked a similar emotional reaction when he marked the second anniversary of Cordero’s death. The Blast noted at the time that she posted a compilation of some of the sweetest moments she and her late lover shared before her death set to Justin Bieber’s 2021 song “Ghost.”
The clip features the lovebirds holding hands on an ice rink, kissing at their wedding, playing with their son, Elvis, and the late actor strumming a guitar. For her caption, the “Dancing with the Stars” contestant told her followers that saying goodbye to Cordero was the “hardest” event of her life.

Kloots later recounted a dream one of her female friends had about the star “looking happy and radiant.” The incident prompted the 40-year-old to rechristen July 5 — the day Cordero died — as his new “birthday.”

The “Fit for Christmas” actress opened up about the public’s expectations of her grieving process in the post she used to announce the death of Nick’s mother, Leslie. According to The Blast, Kloots revealed that a critic sent her a direct message chastising her for “working out and teaching fitness” the day after her mother-in-law died.
“The most powerful thing I’ve learned through grief is what I need to do for myself to release the pain- which helps me process the trauma so it doesn’t stay stuck,” she wrote before admitting that dancing and exercise helped her process.
Kloots reveals that dancing every day “releases pent-up pain” she didn’t realize existed in her body. She ended her candid speech by encouraging others not to “let anyone’s judgment get in the way of YOUR healing.”
The former Rockettes member also asked her followers to find out what makes them feel better and do it without guessing. The post has received over 25k likes since he shared it last month.
