Verna and family, we just heard of this terrible tragedy, my memories of Nicole are from decades ago. Running around the fellowship hall at EUMC, a happy child, the opry etc. I was not aware of her good works and achievements in her life
The loss of a child is a grievous thing. Even at this time remain a proud mother. May the lord be with you, as are our prayers.
Nikki, I watched you grow up in Elmont. You had a beautiful voice & I know you used it to honor Jesus. I pray you areas peace, gone but not forgotten.
You lit up the salon whenever you entered. I will miss our talks about your girls, and the grandbaby. I will miss all of our crazy conversations we had.
i love you, mama. thank you for the 24 years of pure love, strength, and hope. i will miss you forever.
Ben spoke of you with deep admiration. Thank you for the legal advice, for someone not knowing me on a personal basis you took the time to give advice.
May you be at peace
You will be so missed. I am sad I was not able to know you better, but I know how much you were truly loved.
I will miss your laugh, smile and sarcastic humor. You were a bright light and in a sometimes dull world.
Still can’t accept it’s real. Going to miss you like crazy!! Love you!!
You are gone way too soon. You will be greatly missed. I love you cousin.
