To all of Nikki's relatives, especially her Mom Debbie and sister Bambi. I am so sorry to hear of Nikki's passing. Even though I have not seen her in many years, I will always remember that little petite "spark plug". Even as a young girl she always had a huge smile for everyone and she was absolutely adorable. She always had a way of putting a smile on my face too.

Nikki and I were very close at one time in our Unit I days and High School. I remember sharing happy moments and struggles with her. I have fond memories of sleep overs at each others houses in Glendale and late night talks.
When I think of the Nikki I knew, I think of a beautiful girl with a sweet giggle, long brown hair and a very understanding way about her.
I will never forget Nikki....God Bless her and her family. May she be in eternal peace.
