I'm a Correctional Officer at Lake County Jail, in Crown Point, IN where Mr. Nichols was a Baliff in the Courts joining the Jail there. Mr. Nichols would come to the Jail to pick up inmates from the Jail to escort them over to the building next door for Court. Mr. Nichols was always dressed very sharp, was very pleasant to everyone, and always met you with a big smile. You can feel he genuinely cared about people. He was a Good Man. He will be missed by many. Condolences to his Family.

Bob was a close friend of my Parents (Richard & Patricia Shivers). For as long as I could remember, he has always been "Uncle" to me. I was saddened to hear of his passing. Earth knows no sorrow that heaven can't heal. God, wrap your loving arms around this family. Heaven has truly gained an Angel. Sleep peacefully, Uncle Bob. Rest in eternal peace.
