It doesn't seem right. I don't understand why someone who has contributed so much and had a continued desire to contribute so much more has left us. But I know her legacy lives on in her children, her mother and siblings, her friends, and her contributions to the future of Savannah. It is an honor and privilege to know Nicky and Dan and to have been a part of their lives. In Nicky's short life on Earch she has given something very special to all of us. Her light will shine upon us all forever.
