It is with much sadness that I send my condolences to Niki's family. I knew Niki as a very young girl when I was her principal at McKinley Elementary School in Alton. She was simply a sweet, funny and darling child who brought smiles to all of us. I am so sorry she will not have the opportunity to raise her sons to adulthood--I'm sure she has been and would continue to be a loving mom. Sending love and hopes that your precious memories and two beautiful boys will bring you some comfort.
