To the Heimann and Sachs family, my sincerest and deepest condolences to you and yours for your loss. Nicole was a beautiful and special lady and she will be deeply missed.

Mary and family,

I’m so sad to hear of Nicole’s passing. Growing up with Nicole and your family was a joy. So many memories from  summer nights playing hide and seek with the neighborhood kids. Nicole was a kind soul and so genuine. She had her parents’ gentle smiles and a way of making people feel at ease and welcome. She had a calm  presence that I’m certain she has passed on.  We need more Nicole’s in this world and I’m thankful that I knew the original. I wish I had stayed in touch but would get family updates from her dad when our paths randomly crossed.  Sending peace and love to everyone.

I am saddened to hear of the passing of Nicole Heimann Sacks. We were close friends in high school and continued to be in touch all these years through community events in Medford. She often held fundraisers in support of CASA and would donate jewelry as gifts for CASA teens. I had not heard from her in some time but understood she had moved out of the area. Just before everything happened with my Mom, i had been thinking i should reach out.

Nicole and I met Freshman year at what was then Medford Mid-High. We had a class together and she literally chose me as her new friend, announcing we were going to lunch together and we never looked back. She introduced me to a group of friends who remain close friends today, and together our high school experience was fun, positive and magical.

I am grateful to have had Nicole in my life, especially during our younger, carefree years. I have been thinking of her since hearing the news, texting memories and pictures with our old group of friends.

She will be missed and remembered. Sending love to her family. ♥️

Grateful for Nicole’s friendship. This was junior year of high school.

Day before high school graduation. Loved finding  this photo. Fitting that we walked together for graduation. We were best friends in middle school and close through high school.

Fun Halloween celebration senior year of high school at Margo’s house.

Shared many good times at South Medford High School. She was the glue that connected many of us. I have her to thank for introducing me to many good friends. She was sweet steady and present! I will miss her dearly and regret that we didn’t have more time together.

Dear Robert, Mary, Jake, and Illisa,
We are so saddened to learn of Nicole’s passing. She was a wonderful wife, mother, and friend. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and all your friends who had the honor and joy of knowing this beautiful woman. May her memory be a blessing.

Such sad news! My heart goes out to Mary, Robert, Jacob , and all her family and friends. She will be missed!

Nicole & the Heimanns were our neighbors all through childhood. The best, friendliest neighbors to us Millers! She was a good friend from elementary school days through high school. Nicole was such an achiever, always worked so hard in school & activities. My first Bat Mitzvah experience was Nicole’s. I was so in awe of her & proud! 
We played years of tennis together, volleyball too. And many hours spent in the circle on Roundelay and in our yards & houses. I always thought I would bump into Nicole again some day.
My thoughts & prayers go out to her family.❤️

Nicole was a good friend from college.  We were both from Oregon and didn't know many people at CU when we first met in the dorms.  We became good friends and stayed in touch over the years.  I was fortunate to attend Nicole and Robert's wedding.  The news of her passing is so very sad.  My heart goes out to her family.

So sad to hear about her passing, our families grew up together and have shared so many experience, losses and successes over the years.  My heart goes out to Mary and Ilisa as well as Robert, love you all and again so sorry for your loss.

To the family, 
My sincere condolences for your loss. I have not met any of you, so I'll let you know my connection to Nicole.

Nicole embraced me wholeheartedly as a newcomer to Portland in 2021 - in the midst of Covid - and helped me engage with the amazing Jewish community here by involving me in a new Federation committee called Dignity Grows. Nicole led this group of beautiful women in providing hygiene support to neighbors in need. I was so impressed with how easily she connected with people and how hard she worked to improve our community. 

She will be deeply missed.
In sympathy,
Bonnie Newman

Deepest sympathies from Scott Fifer & Leonce Kabela. Nicole was very kind to Leonce when he was searching for a job last year after he graduated from college, and we will always remember her kindness and generosity. Condolences to the whole family.

I have known Nicole since she was a teenager and watched her grow up to be a wonderful person. I know she will be missed by many and leave a hole in many hearts.   Hugs to Robert and Mary as this is a very difficult time for them and family.
