    Praying for the family with God’s indescribable comfort. There are no words that brings true comfort, but God can do what can’t be described. Lean not on your understanding. May God bring you comforts beyond understanding.

    I was so sorry to hear of Niki’s passing. I was honored to have taught her. She was always kind, respectful, and hard-working. I will never forget her sweet smile, her compassion for others, and her ability to cheer others. May God give you the peace and strength to endure these difficult times. May God bless.

    I am so sorry to hear about Niki. I met Niki back in the 80's, she was a beautiful sweet little girl! I did not see her often but when I did she always made me feel good with her smile and her greetings to me like she was happy to see me. I know her family will truly miss her. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. R.I.P. Niki

    Jody, I am so very sorry to have heard of your sweet wife's passing. I know words can't do much right now, but if Clif and I can do anything for you and Coleman... don't hesitate to call my dear friend.

    My love and prayers I’m sending to all of her family and especially Jody. I know how much you love her. Her love will live on through the hearts of all of you! ? Precious are the memories you will keep and share with each other throughout your lives and know that one day you will be reunited in heaven. Nikki was a precious angel who loved her family so much and will be watching over them with that same love.
