A loving and caring mother and daughter, Nicole was a leader, strong, confident, bright, determined, and honest, showing concern and care for those around her. She sought to establish and follow her own path and way in the world, brightening it like a comet while she was here. Nicole will be deeply missed, loved and remembered by those whose lives she touched on her earthly journey. We love you greatly, greatly, greatly.
