Please accept my deepest sympathies. I had the honor of meeting Mrs. Nickle in 1981 while I volunteered at the guidance office for one class period during my Senior year. She was such a loving happy person to be around. Her beautiful eyes were just as beautiful as her heart.

Condolences to the Nickle Family... Your Mother was the most wonderful person to ever know. She was always the life of the party no matter where she was and loved her family so very much... She loved her butterflies and jewelry that's for sure, oh and how she loved to shop QVC! She will be greatly missed by all but never forgotten. We will always cherish the friendship and hold those great memories she gave to us each morning here at Curves. Stay strong as prayer, family and friends will get you through this tough time.
