Tuesday Afternoon

Nikki has a lot of pain that is mostly controlled by medication that makes her sleep. She is not conversing with visitors. Nikki is loved by so many and the number of people who want to see her is quite high. Brian is overwhelmed with phone calls at this point and needs to spend time with Nikki. Please call Brian's sister, Lisa 253 312-2841 and she can give you the best time to visit. We are asking that you keep your visit to no longer than 15 minutes. Also, it is uncomfortable for Nikki if the bed shakes. This is caused by simply touching the bed. Thank you all for your love and prayers during this extremely difficult time. Barbara Patterson- Nikki's Mother-in-law.

Hey Nik,
Guess who? Dawn's Dad, Dave...that's right! Now if memory serves me right, my daughter's best friend did, still does, and always will ROCK! Proof of the pudding was that Metallica concert we all attended some years back. And girl you had some moves out on that soccer field that made you & Dawn the envy of the sport. You guys kicked some butt out there!! Given that, me thinks you need to muster up all of your anger, all of your strength, all of your faith, and together we'll beat this thing down.
You're always in our thoughts & prayers.
Rest easy & stay focused on healing.

With All Of Our Love,
Dave & Linda Lounsbury & Family

Nikki and Brian, I am praying that God blesses you and your families with the emotional strength to make it through each moment. May He ease your pain and bring you peace in moments that seem too hard to bear.

You're not alone.

Hi Nik (& Brian),
It's me Larry Caldera. I am so wanting to come see you if I can? I have always been in awe of your professional ability and as a result got to know you as a very special friend. I will email you and share photos of the boys. Peter who was just a little tike when you saw him last is now 2!

I never knew of your faith, but can see how committed you are to a relationship with Christ and it warms my heart to know you have found comfort in Him. I will pray that you grow stronger with God as a result of the trials you have faced.

I am inspired by you. I love and respect you and cherish the time spent working and laughing with you everyday. You have been a part of some special times in my life including you being there when I married Stephanie. I hold very near and dear to my heart in spite of the distance between us.

God Bless,

Larry & Stephanie

Hey Nikki -

I want you to know my thoughs and prayers are with you. You are truly a strong and courageous person and very admired. I always reflect back at the time you came out to watch our rugby tournament and jumped into a women's game having never played the sport before - I love to tell that story. I wish you all the best in your recovery.

God Bless,

Tory Golino
