The } is a statement, and must be preceded with a newline or a ;.

Try:

nc_fix() { sudo kill -9 $(ps auxwww | grep "[nN]cproxyd" | awk '{print 
$2}'); }

or

nc_fix() { 
    sudo kill -9 $(ps auxwww | grep "[nN]cproxyd" | awk '{print $2}')
}

Everything that follows right now is part of the definition of nc_fix().
When you get to the end of the file, it says "Hey! I'm still defining a
function!"
