So sad, so young! Niki was a beautiful dancer, and a dear friend. We had many good times together before her illness took her into the hospital. I spent time in the hospital encouraging her as she struggled with Porphyria. We lost touch after she moved to Montana. My heart goes out to her two precious children, and family. Rest in peace Hard to believe she’s gone

There are people in our lives whom we carry with us over the years, even after we lose touch. I lost touch with Niki after I moved to GA in 7th grade but she always was a friend I thought of as time passed on. I tried to reconnect after social media kicked off but I could never find her. I was deeply saddened this morning to finally find her & find her gone….almost 3 years! One of things I had always hoped to get a chance to say to Niki if I had ever found & reconnected with her was to apologize to her for stealing her opal earrings…in maybe 3rd or 4th grade. I even thought maybe if I did find her I would buy her a new pair, even if it seemed silly after all those years. But I knew how much she loved those earrings back then and its always bothered me. Im sorry Niki… the beauty of those earrings got the best of me that day. ? I wish I could give you some opal earrings. I wish I had known you were sick. Im sorry you are gone. I have great memories of you as my friend. ❤
