Sandy, you were an icon for each of us in the Nichols legend. Your funny personality lit up the room as well as my heart! Your little cousin who looked up to you, even though I was taller than you!! Watching you cut hair, put makeup on, spraying your perfume and never forget you putting on your "tiny shoes". I thought it was funny I wore a larger size than you! Even though larger by number only, there will never be a person in the Nichols family who can fill your shoes! Always giving, going above and beyond to meet the demand of whatever crisis you were helping with! Rest in peace "cousin"! Your legend you have shared with each of us will always be remembered! Thank you for being you! Your cousin, Joyce Ann!!
