I shall miss Niki's joy in all things knitting as well as her warmth and humor. We agreed that there could never be enough yarn and time to knit it.

To be beautiful is luck but the ability to shine from within is a gift from Heaven. Niki truly had that gift. Her smile had the warm glow of the sun at the Cape and her humor and laughter lifted your soul. Everything Niki did was Top Shelf, from throwing a bachelorette party for Heidi to knitting something for Jesse, Harry or Georgia. One of the best things about the Holidays was having Niki there or any other family gathering. Heidi, thank you for bringing Niki to our family, we received...

I posted this on the Big Apple Knitters Guild mailing list tonight:
Some of you may remember a former BAKG member, Niki Bronstein. Niki, who was originally from Boston, moved back there several years ago. A talented knitter and designer, Niki realized her lifelong dream and bought the knitting shop "Woolcott and Company" in Cambridge, adjacent to the campus of Harvard University and the JFK School of Government.
On Sunday, November 12, Niki passed away after losing her battle to try to...

I can't tell you how lucky I feel having seen Niki this summer. It was my last chance to see her and it will remain forever in my heart.
I believe she had a purpose in the last year and she fulfilled it. The love and support she had for her family gave her the strength to overcome many difficult hardships. Her determination was phenomenal and I know one of her main purposes was to help us look towards the other side and bring it closer, Niki knew it was jam packed full of continuance and I...

Dear Bronstein Family,
We feel anything we write at this time will be futile. The tragic news of Nikkis death has left us with such a sense of loss. Nikki was such a vital personality, the type of person one met for the first time and realised she was genuinely interested in knowing about that person. Always with a humorous glint in her sparkling eyes, she entered a room with that oh so Nikki flair and joie de vivre. Nikki knew how to get the party started!!
We will miss Nikki...

My heart is broken at the passing of my dear friend, Niki and for the heartache her family is feeling. Words seem like such awkward, clumsy things during these times and it’s so hard to express the deep love and admiration so many people had for Niki.
I will miss my dear friend and you all will be in my prayers.
