Not sure what to say?

It was our pleasure to get acquainted with Niki for the past several years. We enjoyed her spirit and willing attitude to participate with us and share experiences. May the Lord be with you and your family.

Uncle Ralph, Lisa and Brian and extended family, we will miss Auntie Niki! We love all of you and are sorry for your loss. I can see her smiling down on us! May she Rest In Peace.

Philippinensian 1957

I'm the series editor for a 3-volume History of the University Philippines. I stumbled on her photo in the 1957 UP Philippinensian yearbook just a minute ago, was curious to see what became of the female pioneer in the College of Engineering, and this is where I finally tracked her down. Thank you for the very informative obituary. I will certainly include her in our history book's photo gallery and use the obituary as a basis for the caption. My condolence to the family. Be assured she...

Condolences to our Mancke cousins on Niki's passing. What a talented lady. We appreciated being reminded, by the obituary and tributes, of her many gifts and interests, and her commitment to her family.

To the Mancke family. I had the privilege to help Nikki the last few years and will truly miss her. Thank you for letting me be a part of her journey here on earth. Both Nikki and Ralph will hold a dear spot in my heart always.

Uncle Ralph, Cousin Lisa, Cousin Brian and all Auntie Niki's family and friends,
Auntie Niki was an accomplished, intelligent, kind, caring, an overall great person, but most of all she was such a loving wife, mother, and aunt. Auntie Niki always had a way of making you feel welcome. She was always interested in you, no matter your age. I'm so happy to have such great memories to fill my heart and soul for forever and a day. We will miss Auntie Niki, as God has wecolmed her home. Hugs...

May your soul rest in peace, auntie niki.
