Bill Nicklas

In loving memory of my husband, Bill Nicklas who passed away October 8, 1988.

Nick,

Twenty five years is such a long, long time and yet it feels like only yesterday. This is my favorite picture of you. We were on a cruise celebrating your 45th birthday with friends and family, neither of us realizing it would be your last birthday we’d celebrate together.

It’s really lonely here, growing older without you. Thank you for all the love and laughter. It’s those memories that keep me going.

And could you please put in a good word for your Pittsburgh Steelers? We need all the help we can get down here!

And when my life on earth is over and once again your smiling face I see. I’ll come to you with open arms, I know you’ll be waiting for me.
