Nikki was a loving mother, a fishing enthusiast, and a devoted employee. She spent her youth filled with gymnastics, artistic roller skating, and softball (playing for Memphis State as their catcher.) She enjoyed lake and river trips and was an avid water skier. She was a loving Aunt to many nieces and nephews. Teaching them how to drive, taking them to play golf, cheering them on at sporting events, and enjoying many beach days with them. She was happy at home, surrounded by the woods and lakes. In her younger years her home was the refuge for the local deer in Bolivar. Family time meant so much to her. She loved movie nights, game nights, haunted houses, pranking family and friends and going to concerts.
