Youd meet Archie anď you were that beautiful girl. You left a long lasting appreciane on everyone you met . I saw Archie and Nicky in chch a few years back and thought wow what an amazing loving couple . I'm so sorry for your loss nothing will ever replace such a Diamond as you said Archie . Thinking of you all from my whanua to yours

Beautiful service for a beautiful lady loved by many. Thank you for allowing us to watch from afar (Melbourne). Without you I may not have made the move to Melbourne and I definitely could have come back to Nelson prematurely so thank you for your advice. Nik you were the best boss I ever had, you were everyone’s work mum and made Prices a family even before you were manager but even more so when you were! Thank you for passing on your values and wisdom. I was reminded of the awesome times we all shared by the stories told at the service. Love you shitloads Nik! Archie, Indie and Izayah I’m so sorry for your loss, Nikki was one of a kind! Sending all my love and strength to you at this heartbreaking time xx

Heartbroken for your family, lovely service I am glad I could witness and share your life celebration all the way from NY. Thank you for being! Big massive hugs to the whanau ! I’m going to have to brush my teeth, don’t want to have a stink bum now .. Xoxo

Thank you for sharing your special farewell. And thank god for technology making it possible. Still seems surreal. I always thought Nikki would be a 'staple' whenever i came back to Nelson. Going into Prices, there you'd be, always with a purpose about you , always smiling, dark eyes intense and bright. Rest, beautiful wahine.

When we are making memories, we never know how important they are going to become. I'm so glad i made so many memories with you. I forever miss you Nikki. Sylvia xx❤️

Nikki - you are the most generous loving caring woman. You have touched the lives of so many. Your warmth, friendly smile, and heart connected you with anyone in your life, no matter who they were or where they were from. The short time I worked at Prices you made me feel so welcome, you were so caring and kind to me I will never forget. I was mental as and you always gave me such good advice, which I will always carry my whole life. Making the staff memo was absolutely hilarious, you used to make so many people laugh and brought so much joy to their lives. My heart truly goes out to Archie, Indie and Izayah - I know Nikki will always be with you all, she will be the brightest star in the sky and the best guardian angel ever, keeping you all safe and loved from afar until one day you can meet again. <3 sending so much love <3 I wish I could give you all a big hug xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you for the gift of sharing Nikki's service for those of us that couldn't attend. Nikki is a shining light - she always will be. And every time I see a shooting star I will think of her (as I always have!). Love you shitloads. Sam xxx

Nikki was the most generous, giving, loving and selfless person. Working alongside her on various charity, community and work events her hard work and dedication was always evident and very much appreciated. Her smile, laughs, love for music, support and friendship will be sadly missed. Rest in peace dear friend.

We were living our best life in our teenage years, life was a roller coaster. Hanging out, going to parties, sneaking into the Bush Inn, BBQ's in the weekends. We really had "shit loads" of good times!! Nikki & Archie were the "perfect match", complete soul mates and a joy to be around. You had the purist of hearts, an infectious laugh with a smile that could light up any room with your presence. Truly one of the kindest human beings I've had the good fortune to meet. You have left a huge imprint on us all, gone way too soon. My deepest condolences to you Archie, Indie, Izayah & the greater Whanau. Rest in Peace now sweety, you will be missed.

I was 15 when I met Nikki,and was thrilled to meet her again through work many years later. Always such a pleasure to spend time with Nikki as she had such an infectious aura of joy and love. Her love for her family was obvious, as well as her care and consideration for everyone she came across. Nikki was an energising and innovative business woman who always considered people as well as profit, which made her invaluable to company, colleagues and the community. Nikki you gave so much - as a mentor, a friend and a treasured mum/wife. You will be very, very much missed, but rest in peace knowing you have left a special legacy to so many. All my love and gratitude that I got to count you as a friend.

Nikki’s presence was always loved because she just loved people! A massive personality with a kind heart my thoughts are with her family right now

Your kindness and generosity knew no bounds! I will miss you and your big heart ♥ Rest in the peace of heaven. All my love, Ashleigh xx
