On October 1, 2023, the world lost a remarkable soul as we bid farewell to Nikki Nickerson. Born on February 22, 1979, in Tyler, Texas, Nikki brought joy and laughter to all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Her father, Kevin Nickerson, and mother, Deborah Nickerson, raised her with immense love and taught her the values of compassion and kindness.

Soon after graduating from Justin Kimball High School in 1997, Nikki embarked on an extraordinary journey in the world of cosmetology. As the talented Manager of Serenity Salon and Spa, she transformed countless lives, one stunning hairstyle at a time. Her infectious smile and warm personality made her an instant favorite among the salon's loyal clients.

Despite her busy schedule, Nikki always found time to cherish what truly mattered in life: family. Her three children, Chase, Stella, and Robert, were the absolute lights of her life. A loving and devoted mother, Nikki poured her heart and soul into raising her children, teaching them the importance of love, respect, and laughter.

With a mischievous twinkle in her eye, Nikki found pleasure in life's simple pleasures. She adored spoiling her grandchildren with the same love and affection she had showered upon her own children. While we won't mention their names here, we know how cherished they were by their extraordinary grandmother.

Nikki's vibrant spirit could never be extinguished, even in the face of adversity. Overcoming numerous challenges, she battled bravely against breast cancer till her last breath. Her unwavering positivity and resilience inspired those around her and touched the lives of everyone she met.

Surrounded by love, Nikki shared a deep bond with her six siblings: Keldrick, Kioya, Xavier, Ashton, Shai, and Sarah. Their cherished memories together will forever be etched in their hearts, a testament to the bond of family that made Nikki's life truly remarkable.

As we celebrate Nikki's life, let us remember her contagious laughter, her compassionate heart, and her unwavering zest for life. The world is undoubtedly a brighter place for having had her in it. Though we mourn her loss, let us also rejoice in the memories we shared, the love she showed, and the happiness she brought into our lives.
