Widow has late husband’s tattoo cut from his corpse, framed as a ‘cool’ tribute

Instead of wearing her heart on her sleeve, she got her husband’s sleeve framed.

When Angelica Radevski lost her spouse unexpectedly earlier this year, the West Virginia nurse and mother-of-one made a bold decision that has stunned millions online — she preserved and framed a piece of his tattooed skin.

Angelica, 35, and her husband TJ had been lifelong friends before marrying in 2021 and raising their 10-year-old son, Preston.


Of the more than 70 tatts TJ had inked over his body, they chose to preserve his Pittsburgh Steelers helmet design — complete with skull imagery and finished off in his beloved team’s black and gold colors. It was his first sleeve tattoo, and a favorite of his and their son’s. Preston was the one who ultimately made the final call.

“This is Dad,” he told his mother.
