I miss you.

Lois, Olivia, Justin & Tony,

We are so very sorry for your loss. Nicki & I met through softball and instantly became friends. We were only 13/14 years old at the time, but she alway knew how to make me laugh. Joe was one of our coaches & I still remember every moment we all spent together. For the couple years we played softball together Nicki was like a sister to me & Joe was like my other dad. Even though Nicki & I lost touch as we grew older, we never forgot one another. And...

Lois, Tony, Justin, and Olivia,
Our love and prayers go out to you at this time of loss for you. It's a tragic event, but Nicki can now be at peace. God give you the strength to heal and understand. I know Joe is looking down and watching over all. God Bless all the family. Love you!

Our daughter and Nicki were classmates at St. Paul School in Westerville. Many days we and other parents were spectators as we cheered the girls on at their sporting events and Joe gave of his time to coach. Our sincere sympathy is extended to family and friends as you mourn this loss. Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord.
