After thanking Cordero's `extraordinary` doctor, Kloots expressed gratitude for the outpouring of love from friends and fans, and signed off with a sweet message for her husband.
`God has another angel in heaven now. My darling husband passed away this morning. He was surrounded in love by his family, singing and praying as he gently left this earth,` his wife, Amanda Kloots, wrote in an Instagram post Sunday night.
`I am in disbelief and hurting everywhere. My heart is broken as I cannot imagine our lives without him. Nick was such a bright light. He was everyone's friend, loved to listen, help and especially talk. He was an incredible actor and musician. He loved his family and loved being a father and husband. Elvis and I will miss him in everything we do, everyday.`
Cordero made his Broadway debut in 2012 in the long-running musical hit `Rock of Ages` before earning a Tony nomination in 2014 for the short-lived musical based on Woody Allen's `Bullets Over Broadway` in the role of an arts-loving gangster played by Chazz Palminteri on film.
