Our cherished Nicky peacefully passed away on June 28th, 2016 in Big Bear, CA surrounded by her loved ones. Her journey with a degenerative cell condition (breast cancer) was very private, and she did everything she could to heal. Only 41 years old, she left us far too early. Nicky leaves her husband Peter and their three sons Alex and Lukas both 12, and Matias 9. We will greatly miss her megawatt smile, sharp humor, creativity, and generosity that made all of our lives better. We will never stop missing her.

It goes without saying that this has been an extremely difficult time for the family physically and emotionally. Peter did an incredible job of caring for Nicky during her lengthy illness, he was resolute in his dedication to her health. Once she needed full time care, Peter left his job to focus his attention on taking care of everything she needed. He was at her side day and night. Being the sole provider of the family, this has left them with significant financial need.

A GoFundMe account has been established to assist with financial needs during this difficult time. Your generosity is greatly appreciated by all of the family.
