Most of you don't know me but I'm Nikki's mom. I am so amazed at your wonderful response to this tragedy. Having been at some of the tournaments with Nikki I knew the pool world is a close community but this is just phenomenal. Your kind thoughts and prayers are truly appreciated. What many of you may not know is that Nikki fought a battle with Lupus, a terribly debilitating disease. She didn't look sick because she didn't want to look sick and took pains to hide her illness. She was determined that Lupus wouldn't take her and it didn't. She died trying to help others, which was so like her. We the family take great comfort in knowing how much she was loved and we will be sure to pass this knowledge on to her 7 year old daughter Olivia. Please accept my thanks for all your posts, I am reading them daily. I plan to be at the benefit in March and hopefully I will see you there to thank you all in person.

Bump this thread to the top.
From what I've read your daughter was a very fine young lady and it's no surprise considering she was raised by you and seeing how you've represented yourself by this message in the face of such tragedy. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Very sorry for your loss. She was sweet as can be.
This is truly sad news.
I first saw Adam and his girlfriend at the DCC in 2009. I didn't talk to them, but I was impressed with Adam's play, and I watched 2 of his matches because I liked how he plays.
I hope he will return to pool as soon as possible.
RIP Nikki. My deepest condolences to all involved.
I encourage everyone to donate some $ to both Nikki's daughter and Adam.

Nicki's Mom,
Your right, we are a close family, the best family one could have. Nicki will always be in our thoughts and prayers.
If you, Olivia or anyone in your family ever needs anything, and I mean anything in the future, you will have hundreds of people here that will trip over each other trying to help.
Nicki must have been a wonderful daughter to you and we feel lucky to have her as part of our AZ family, God Bless her.
Thank you for letting us know a little bit more about her for those of us that didn't have the chance to meet her in this life.

Thank you Roy I will be passing it along!
Get well soon Adam, the Pool community is behind you. As for all that loved Nikki a simple poem:
Don't weep at my grave,
For I am not there,
I've a date with a butterfly
To dance in the air.
I'll be singing in the sunshine,
Wild and free,
Playing tag with the wind,
While I'm waiting for thee.

Trying to find out the status on how Adam Smith is doing, If anyone knows. Hope he is doing well and wish him the best of luck.
I refuse to let this thread die. Back to the top.
but maybe better to bump the other one. adam should be out of the hospital for one and nikki needs donations is a better topic now.
i will bump that now so you will see it.

Pardon my ignorance, but there is another thread?
Link it. In the meantime, I'll search for it. Thanks! :thumbup:
