My heart is so broken. I miss you so much Nic. We had plans and so much we needed to see and do together. I miss our random car rides and constant chats. My heart aches for more time.

You were meant to me mine - and I was meant to be yours, in every lifetime. I miss you.

My favorite person. My life is altered with the loss of you. My soul is changed. I hope I make you proud. I LOVE YOU - my girl, ALWAYS.

Our last photo together - 2/28/26. WHO KNEW? Definitely not me. I wish I could go back. I love you. Always. My guardian angel.

It’s finally time for me to write my post - and I’m truly not sure I can. You were, and always will be, my person. The truest/brightest part in my life. My life is altered without you. I’m no longer the same. YOU made me a better person. You loved me, unconditionally in a way I can’t grasp. From nights out on the town, to cuddling together one the couch, you got it. You were it. It’s so hard for me to do this, I’m grasping at straws to explain the depth of EVERYTHING you meant to me. My soul misses you. Nicole, my bones ache without you. But I’m so thankful I had you - I had our friendship. You made me a better person. My XWC member. My girl. Half of me - LITERALLY. I hope wherever you are, you are so proud. I hope I always honor YOU in the truest form. I’ll always remember EVERYTHING you shared with me. My confidant. My companion. The truest person I ever met. I’ll never be the same without you. I love you, to infinity and beyond PLUS ONE - you can’t top that! My girl, always. I’m so glad you were mine. And I will always be yours. 🤍🪽

Im still trying to wrap my head around a world without you in it. You were the kind of person who didnt just live life, you pushed the rest of us to live it louder, brighter and with way more  trips and concerts tickets than  probably budgeted for. 
You had this way  of making everything like an adventure. You will be missed more than words can say.  But I promise to live more, dance like no one is watching and love more.  Just like you did. I love you and will always miss you.

Nicole was an absolute amazing person when she would come over Nicole was always smiling and happy as can be!! Watching her love my best friend the way she did that inspires me, they had a love that last forever! Nicole is gone to soon but will forever be in my heart and the memories will go on with me. Love you Nicole I know you are at peace now sweet angel. Rest easy ♥️

IDK about you, but best friends since 22.
Nic, my bestie, original XWC member, voice of reason & chaos, my Swiftie, nickname giver, emotional support person, and simply—my person. 
We only had 4 years & 1 week, but we packed in a lifetime of memories, laughter & love. I remember it all too well, the road trips, concerts, singing TayTay in the car, backyard tiny pool parties, bestie tattoos, porch sitting at Hops, & so much more. 
There aren't enough words to describe how much I love you. We were the same-same but different-different. Canadian Club and Tequila. Leo and Pisces. Stingray and Jellyfish.    
I am forever grateful & in debt to you for all you have done for me, KB & Carson. I could never imagine a better best friend & will never recover from losing you-this is the WORST. I will cling to Les & PBall and try to continue. My soul misses you more than I could ever explain. I would choose you every day, and I hope in every lifetime we find each other faster. 
Thank you for being my person.

I’m at a loss for words. We lost an amazing friend. I loved Nicole and I loved how much she made my best friend happy. I will forever be grateful to have known such an amazing, beautiful soul. Know that we love you and will one day meet again❤️😢

Sending my thoughts and prayers to Em and Nicole’s family.

Although I only connected with you towards the end of your life.  The times we met you were so sweet. You were so kind, accepting, and had such a  playful spirit. Rest easy sweet woman, your time was cut too short. 💖

To my beautiful girl,

There are no words that truly prepare someone for the kind of silence that follows losing the person who meant the most to them. Since you’ve been gone, the world feels different—quieter, heavier, and honestly a lot less bright. It’s hard to imagine walking through life without you beside me, because you weren’t just my girlfriend… you were my best friend.

You were the person I laughed with the most, the one I talked to about everything, and the one who somehow understood me even when I didn’t know how to explain myself. The world is going to feel a little emptier without you in it. I won’t pretend it won’t suck without you here, because it will. You made everything better just by being part of it.

But even through all this pain, I keep thinking about what you gave me while you were here. You helped shape me into the man I am today. You believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. You pushed me to grow, to be kinder, stronger, and better. Because of you, I became a better man, and that’s something no one can ever take away.

I hope you knew how much you mattered to me. I hope you knew that being there for you, supporting you, and loving you was one of the greatest honors of my life. If I could do anything right in this world, it was trying to be a light in your life the way you were in mine.

I’ll carry you with me in everything I do. In the way I treat people, in the way I keep moving forward, and in the way I try to live the life you always believed I could have. Your love didn’t disappear—it’s a part of me now.

I miss you more than words can ever explain. But I’m grateful for every moment we had, every laugh, every conversation, every memory. Loving you was one of the best things that ever happened to me.

Rest easy, my love.  
I’ll keep your light alive.

Forever yours.

My first message got deleted for community guidelines and I know you’d think that was hilarious, love you and miss you forever Nics ❤️

We all met in 2008 and were able to have this time together in December 2025. I hate we never made it to our trip planned in a couple of months, but you will always be a part of our lil Jefferson familia. Rest in Peace beautiful. We will miss you forever.

my deepest condolences to the friends and family of sweet niki. she was friends with my mom while i was growing up and i’ve always remembered her to be the sweetest woman. rest easy ❤️

I loved Nikki and will miss her sweet smile.  She always brought joy with her, especially in youth group.  I loved to see her when we would accidentally bump in to each other and we acted like we just saw each other yesterday.   We had so many fun years in church youth group going on mission trips, working fund raisers, doing community work, going to church camp and just hanging out during Wednesday night services.  Sometimes she would come to the church office "just to visit" when she was a teen.

The world has lost a light.  Nicole was brighter than sunshine.   She was love, kindness, and unwavering compassion and warmth.  She loved with her heart and soul. She was true, real, and genuine.  Nicole was and will always be radiance.  I am so, so lucky to have her in my life.  She was a true friend.  I miss her and will every day.   I love you, Nicole.

Nicole and my MidSOUTH family at my wedding.

She was one of a kind ♥️ Celebrating her birthday at Verona’s  ☺️

I remember when Nicole and her Mother Laura came to visit me in Hartford, Ct.  We had so much fun going to Cape Cod and camping there! She loved the beach so much! We also went to New York City and  had some fun.  I'm her Aunt Pam and she was a Wonderful Woman! I will always Love her ❤️

Nicole was a big personality! Full of laughter and life! The void she leaves in everyone’s life will be devastating, we must learn to fill it with the same love that she showed the world! Prayers to all her friends and family.
