Debbie and I are so sorry to hear today of Bob's passing to his Heavenly reward. The Nichols family meant so much to a young Woods family in the mid-70's as we were welcomed into the Spencer wrestling program. Bob and Linda were at every match - every year supporting all the Yellowjackets. They are truly the epitome of a wrestling family. May God Bless all the family and know that the Bob Nichols smile is still alive forever!!
