Sending all my love to her mini me, Lola, and her husband, Cesar, as well as all of her family friends. I met Nicole through Peloton a year and half ago. She was so uplifting, kind, positive and just a bright light- someone you wanted to be around and would gravitate towards. The world is a little darker without her light. I hope the love and support of other wraps Lola, Cesar and her family in their arms in the coming days and months.

Nikki had such a beautiful spirit and kind heart. We were close friends in high school and I have so many wonderful memories of her. I’m praying for all those who have been touched by Nikki, who are feeling this deep loss, that they would feel the love of God and His peace envelope them during this difficult time. I pray that her daughter Lola will remember what a lovely, sweet person her mama was, and that she will always know how much she was cherished. Much love to you all.
