Taylor Nicole, the girlfriend of the late Bo Lueders (Harm’s Way, etc.), has taken to social media to pay tribute to the guitarist. She says “there are not words to describe the amount of love [she has] for him.”

Here’s Taylor’s full statement:

“On the night of April 1st, I sat on Bo’s lap to say goodnight. He tucked my hair behind my ear, gave me a big kiss, and assured me that, despite how tough 2026 has already been, we were going to have a great year together.

We had big plans. We just signed for our first place together, and all we could talk about recently is how excited we were to officially have a home to share. The only routine either of us had was to get coffee every morning and plan new and exciting things to experience together. He understood me in ways no one else has. He assured me every single day that he would always love me, and do anything to protect me. He has spent our entire relationship going above and beyond, and doing anything and everything for me. There are not words to describe the amount of love I have for him.

I was his biggest fan, and he was mine. I would go to any show I could, and recently started trying to catch more and more Hardlore interviews in person. He would always encourage me to take on new projects. In fact, he would then film them for me and give me honest and helpful feedback if needed. We cheered each other on and supported each other through everything. He held me through my worst moments and challenged me to be my best self.

Whenever I would thank Bo for all that he does, he would say “I know you would do the same for me”. Truly, I would have done anything for him. I was with him until the very end, and I hope that he knows I will carry him in my heart for the rest of my life. He was, and will always be everything to me.

I love you forever, Baba. Thank you for being mine and showing me the world. I promise to live an exciting life full of kindness, adventure, and delicious food all for you.”
