Nicki was the first professional to ever cut my hair, and was the first to teach me about how to look good. She always had a way of making me feel so important. She will be missed by this guy!
My heart goes out to you, Dwight and family! Nicki has moved on to Heaven, where she is probably already cooking for a crowd–maybe even helping to plan for the great Wedding Feast of the Lamb! Nicki is that rare blend of brave/gutsy/spunky and kind/helpful/generous. Hundreds of people have been touched by her skills and service. Besides her valuable friendship, I am most thankful for the Sunday School class that she and Cartha taught–it wasn’t just babysitting; they fostered a love for God’s Holy Word in those little kids! It might have seemed like a thankless task at the time, but I will be eternally grateful–my son Nickolas was her student, and she helped prepare him to meet Jesus at age 13. I am so glad she invested in his soul! We will be praying for you all in the coming days, weeks, months, and years ahead.
To the Campbell family my heart goes out to you in the passing of your wonderful wife and mom! So many cherished memories for sure! Nicki was such a vibrant person with personality galore! Her smile, laugh and fun nature would light up a room. You could always count on Nicki for any help needed at West Hill Baptist Church. From Ladies Morning Out and even exercise classes many years ago to being an integral part the Ladies Retreats and every meal served at West Hill for many years. She certainly was a blessing! I know the last several years have been hard and even though the loss is hard to bear I know you have to be rejoicing that she is whole again with her Lord and Savior! Love, hugs and prayers being sent your way. ❤🙏
So sorry for your loss, Dwight. Praise God she is with our Lord and Savior. Prayers of comfort to you and your family.
To all that loved Nicki I’m so very sorry for your loss! Nicki was one of my favorite people, she always had a smile and something positive to say! We are all going to miss her greatly!
Nicki was a kind, joyful and Godly woman. She will be missed dearly

Dwight, so sorry for your loss. Prayers and thoughts for you and your family.
Dwight – our hearts are broken for you and your family. We’ve been neighbors for a long time with few words ever spoken but could tell from day one that Nicki was a wonderful person, wife, mother & grandmother. Nicki will be missed by everyone who knew and loved her.
My heart goes out to you, Dwight. Only a person who has gone through the death of their spouse knows what you’re going through. May God bless you.
So very sorry for your loss. I worked with Nicki at NuBeautique in Orrville back in 1984. She also made the day fun and it never felt like work. May she rest in peace.
Stephanie and family – I am so sorry for the loss of your wonderful mom. She was indeed a blessing to many. My sympathies to you all.
