To the greatest most amazing Mum I could have ever wished for. Life will never be the same without you. You weren’t just my Mum but also my best friend. You supported me in so many ways and everything you did was for me and the whole family. We told each other pretty much everything and I am devastated that you wont be here to see your grandchildren grow up and be there for major milestones in their lives. I keep expecting you to walk in the door at any minute and I think that thought is holding me together at the moment. I hope that wherever you are that you are finally at peace with other loved ones we have lost over the years. I will always talk to the girls about you and I will never forget all the good times we shared together. I love you so much and hope one day when the time is right that we will meet again.
It’s taken a while to find the right words.
Nikki had been a wonderful friend since first meeting her in work at Barclays over 20 years ago. Entertaining us over the years in so many ways, from demonstrating cartwheels in the garden, cooking a chilli without the core ingredient of chilli, her legendary shopping escapades or by just being “Nikki” with her lovely warmth and smile.
Nikki was, over the years our babysitter, entertainer and the very best of friends. Most importantly, Nikki possessed wonderful qualities that we now see in Johnny and Jasmine and are why we chose her to be godmother to our eldest daughter Nia.
We shared many special occasions, christenings, birthdays and Christmas, usually with a Prosecco or two for the girls and a beer or two for the boys and we were looking forward to sharing many more memorable nights together.
Nikki and Dave were so easy to get along with that we didn’t need to see them every day. If we didn’t see them for a while, it didn’t matter and felt like yesterday since we last saw them, and they were/are always there for us.
We all loved it when a dinner date was in the diary with Nikki and Dave. What wonderful memories we have and will treasure.
Nikki you were a wonderful human being and will be hugely missed, but never forgotten.
We love you lots Emma and Huw
Please may I share with you…
To celebrate one of my dearest friends Nikki, we share a friendship of 36 years…
When we met, Nikki was 19, I was 24; we met through my partner at the time… Mark worked with Nikki in the Royal Bath Casino as a croupier…
Nikki and I, grew up together over the years, we laughed a lot (and cried a little), together… We were privileged to have shared several Christmas’s with mum Jo and dad John…
I had the honour of becoming god mother; Jonathan and Jasmine all grown now, I am so very proud of you both…
A few years later, Nikki and I worked at Barclays international, in separate departments… Then separately/independently we studied for a HR degree, we were like minded in many ways…
Dave you are a much loved husband… Nikki told me you were always ‘the one’ from the very beginning…
In the early years of our friendship I was in the foreground, in later years in the background, but always there…
My condolences go out to the whole family…
“Nikki – I love you as a sibling, you will always be in my heart and in my prayers”…
No words can describe how very sorry we all are at the sudden loss of darling Nikki.
We have shared many great times together laughing. Always meeting up on Christmas morning for a bottle of fizz or two or three.
Nikki will never be forgotten as she lives through in her precious legacy of her beautiful children and grandchildren.
She will be always be with the ones she loved, guiding and protecting them.
All of our hearts go out to you all at this very sad time
My beautiful little big Sister, Nikki.
You made me laugh, you made me cry, you were the one I always looked up to, you were my rock when my life seemed to fall, you were the ultimate partner in crime and the rational to my irrational. Always present, always guiding, always my constant unconditional sister.
My promise to you is to do my absolute best to support our amazing family, to be present in your stead. I promise to embrace life and I promise to drink Champage.
The stars will never shine as bright as you.
Forever young,
Forever yours
Ali, your big little sister.
Gods bless sweetie. X x x
Terribly sad sad news , Nikki was a great help to me @ LPE and she will be sorely missed
To a beautiful, wonderful godmother,
Still finding it incredibly tricky to process what has happened.
You provided us with 20+ years of fun and games, life advice, tipsy evenings and endless love – and for that we are so grateful.
We had always been in awe of your impressive jewellery collection, fancy shoes and bags and cheeky shopping habits – you must be where we get it from! Oh, add to that your love of bubbly, I am becoming quite the fan myself these days too.
You were one of the most happy go lucky, funny and lovely people we’ve had the pleasure of growing up with, and we are so sad you won’t be with us for our next chapters. Though having said that, we’re sure you’ll be there in spirit.
You were our ‘surrogate aunty’. Not only were we blessed to have you in our lives, but also owe you a massive thank you for adding David, Jasmine, Johnny and the girls into them too.
We will be thinking of you always and will hold onto our happy memories forever.
Lots of love,
Nia and Elin xxx
Nikki my cousin,
You will be so missed and although I have known you all my life I wish we could have been closer. Time and life generally seemed to get in the way and I regret that. However I have many happy memories and can’t seem to get your voice and smile out of my head. You raised beautiful children and supported your family through tough times. I hope you are at peace, Chris xx
Nikki was a much loved and respected colleague and friend. She will be greatly missed by everyone at LPE.
Dearest Nikki
So hard to accept that you have left us so soon. We will miss your lovely smile and conversations. ❤️
We will always be there for Dave, Jonny, Jasmine & the girls.
Manj, Suman, Josh, Aaron, Daljit, Darshan
In loving memory of our beautiful niece, Nicola
From the day you were born, our visit to Germany to see John and Jo in those early years is a memory we will never forget, we knew we had been blessed to have you in our lives, from being a bridesmaid to working with you and who could forget those ‘John Lewis’ moments and the giggles we had.
We will hold dear the pictures we have of you and Ali in the fun photobooth at Grants wedding, they show the essence of you, your fun, your laughter and your captivating personality and those pictures will be cherished forever.
Fly high with the stars our beautiful angel, you will outshine them all.
God bless
Aunties, Jackie & Susie & families. xxxx
Dearest Nikki
The past two years working with you has been a pleasure. It wasn’t plan sailing but your help, support and professionalism got us through the toughest of years.
I will miss you skipping into the office, the stories of the girls, your beautiful outfits and helping you find your keys and glasses when you’ve misplaced them!
You were one of a kind and will be truly missed.
Sending my love to your beautiful family at this time. xx
Thoughts and prayers are with you Dave, Johnny, Jasmin & the girls. Still can’t believe we won’t see Nikki Aunty again. She was a beautiful soul inside and out and her memories will live on. She was always so caring and loving towards all the family and always made a special effort to talk to everyone at family get togethers. We will miss her presence dearly. Love to you all 💞
To Our Nikki Chachi Ji
Since we were young kids we knew you as Nikki Chachi and that’s how you stayed. My fondest memory was that you were the one who introduced us to Easter eggs. I’ll never forget that. We had no idea what they were, we saw them in the shops and had no clue about them. Then one day about 35 years ago you bought us one each and we were amazed. You taught us things about your culture and you learnt things about ours and that was your gift. No matter how weird and wonderful the culture you were happy to be included and we loved you for that.
You brought Dave in to the family and just like you, he embraced us all.
Like Johnny said your dad will be surprised to see you up there and no doubt you will be toasting us down here. You will be forever missed x
Beautiful lady inside and out, always had a smile on her face will be missed by friends and family thinking of Dave , Jasmine, Jonathon and grandchildren

Dearest Nikki
What can I say.
I am still finding it hard to believe that I am never going to see you again.
You came into our family 35 years ago and we shared many special moments together , weddings, birthday parties, lunches and dinners.
I remember you coming for.dinner once with a bottle of white wine. I had never drank white wine before, but I loved it so much that I went round Waitrose for weeks trying to find it! Not sure I ever did!!
You were not only my sister in law but also a dear friend. You were such easy company that I could talk to you about anything, usually over a glass of prosecco!
I will miss your kindness, your smile and our chats. You were a wonderful mother , grandmother, wife, daughter and sister, always worrying about everyone.
You will be deeply missed by us all but never forgotten. We will be here to support Dave, Johnny, jasmine and the girls.
Forever in our thoughts rest in peace dear Nikki.
Jita and Dala xx
My darling girl -what can I say I am expecting you to knock on my door and say come on we are going out . Our lives were full of fun and laughter, always saw the funny side of things. We had plans you Alison and I (I will put them on hold until we are together) daddy and I were so proud of you when you were awarded your degree,masters and merit.we were there with you our hearts swelling with pride. You’ve worked so hard to achieve your goals nothing was too much you made time for us all.
You are a sister a wife, mother and grandma but most of all you are my daughter. I miss you so much
Darling Girl- How to find the words.
We met 30 years ago when our boys were in short trousers, at Playbox. You will always be Auntie Nikki to Arron & Kellie.
So many years of friendship including lift-sharing and fun trips out.
You were a very dear friend and so supportive when I needed it.
Will miss you so very much.
Mwah until we meet again…
