My first girlfriend & lifetime friend.
My deepest sympathy to you. I met Nikki while working and saw her and her husband often at the hospital. She was always one of my most favorite patients to run into while working. There is no doubt she will be missed and no doubt she is a beautiful angel now.
My heart is sad that such a beautiful soul is gone, but she will never be forgotten.
Fly high, Nikki.❤️
Nikki was so much fun and a ray of sunshine. When we did get together it was a time filled with fun and laughter sitting around a fire. She will be greatly missed. My condolences to her family. Thoughts and Prayers during this difficult time.
So very sorry for the loss of your daughter Larry. It was been many years since we have seen each other. Dick has passed in 2018 and I know he would feel your loss too. Prayers for peace. Love Yvonne Stiller
