Still miss you big my friend

Peggy, I feel sad and heartbroken just finding out about Steve's death. We first met in 7th grade band class. He wanted to be a drummer and I wanted to be a sax player. Tapping his drum sticks he purposely taped one of the finger tabs of my saxophone and popped out the mother of pearl button. For years afterward he always referred to that day saying I gave him a look of anger and thought I was going to grab his sticks and break them in half . Fortunately after getting to know him we became...

Dr. Nichalson was my Dr. He was such a nice man and he always gave me a lollipop. I was never afraid to go to the Dr. because he was my Dr. and he always made me feel comfortable. He always explained things to me in a way that a child could comprehend. I think now, how my interactions with him as a child shaped my positive attitude when seeing a physician as an adult. Thanks Dr. Nichalson... xxx - Jenessa Conner

I just found out today that Dr. Nicholson passed away he was my son's pediatrician for almost 18 years we saw him in & his lovely wife in Germany & they both were just as friendly as anyone & he will be Forever in our hearts! He was one of the best Doctors & Nicest Men I've Ever Known My Son & I Will Pray For Your Family & I'm So Sorry It Took So Long For Us To Find Out About Your Horrible Loss! Thank You, With Sincere Sympathy, Janice & Shannon O'Leary


Steve was the finest physician I ever knew. He was the "brightest person in the room", very compassionate, fair, hard working, an inspiration and a joy to be with. He and I practiced together for seventeen years: a wonderful period in my life. An incredible human being.

To Dr. Nichalson's Family and Staff,
It wasn't until very recently that I learned about the passing of Dr. Nichalson. Dr. Nichalson was a great doctor and he was very kind to my kids the times he treated them at the clinic. I am so sorry for your loss. My family and I send our deepest condolenses and prayers for healing.

To Dr. Nichalson's Family and Staff,
I was looking to take my son back to him today as he is transitioning from the Pediatric Clinic to the Adult Clinic and I knew I wanted Dr. Nichalson look at him for my son has such deep respect for him and TRUSTS him above all as I do! As I googled to get the phone number to call his obituary came up and I thought to myself, "No, this isn't the same Stephen Nicholson until I saw his picture which was when I just went into tears knowing that this man...

Was looking for information for my daughter last night as our granddaughter was running a fever after shots. Was absolutely shocked to see this news on the website for the office! Dr. Nichalson was a great doctor to both my son and daughter who are both grown adults now. What a huge hole he will leave in many hearts. My prayers and condolences to his family and staff.

My heart was sadden today upon hearing of Dr. Nichalson's passing. He was such an amazing physician and important part of our lives and our daughters lives. He reminded us that our medically fragile daughter not only needed incredible care but also a life she would look back on and know she had lived. He contributed to her thriving in her life today. He was available when needed and not only provided excellent care but encouraged us even when we couldn't see the end of the tunnel. He will be...
