Nicki brought so many gifts to all of our lives. When we lose a loved one here on earth, we gain an angel in heaven that watches over us. And Nicki was already an angel right here on earth. I firmly believe that God will accept her with open arms for all the good she has done. I pray that our Lord brings you and your family the much needed comfort and peace during this sad time. May God bless Nicki's soul and may she rest in peace. Love you Nicki! You will never be forgotten.
