Hermann and Starkey Family, I am so sorry about the loss of Nicole. Although, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen Nicole, I will still remember all the fun we had at sleepovers. Sneaking out to jump on the trampoline, making rice surprise at all hours of the night and laughing. We connected again when the K-Star opened and she was still the sweet person I remember from our school days. Nicole was a light in this world and I will cherish the fun memories we had. I still tell stories of her when we were younger that make me laugh. I know she is at peace now and enjoying the loving arms of Jesus. I’m praying for all of you and hope you find comfort in knowing how much Nicole will be missed.
