Dear Connie, Camryn and Josh: At a time like this, there are no easy words. I am at a loss for words, as I have been since I found out about Russ. What is easy to say is that I am so glad that I got to spend time with him and all of you. I will hold those memories close to my heart. It has been a blessing to have Josh so near us. We have been able to share in so many memories from the day that Russ and your family first visited Anapolis. I have the wonderful memory of going to the Army/Navy game with my big brother sitting next to me. He used to call me "little sis". Others see him as my half brother, but he never made me feel any less than a fully loved sister. I have too many memories to share. I will mourn the loss of future memories with him. Just know that he was deeply loved by us all, and we will keep him in our hearts the rest of our lives.

To My Brother….
For 53 years you were in my life…. I love you and will always miss you!
So many crazy memories from childhood… The time you wanted to be my twin to be older for the girls at the beach, when you ran down the hallway to the kitchen and I slapped a piece of peanut butter bread in your face. Mom said someday you’d be bigger than me and I better watch out. Well, you did get bigger than me…. Yet I don’t remember any practical pranks towards me….. Do you?
I loved all the philosophical talks we had, the interest you had in politics, history, and other matters. You had the ability to latch on to the new ideas and understand them. You were laid back, willing to help others, passionate about many things, witty…. You and Karen shared a biting wit that I enjoyed so much.
You loved your family…. They were always in your thoughts. I remember our family reunion in 1999 and how close you were with Camryn and Josh. You were so proud of Josh going to the Naval Academy and how we laughed at ourselves because so many of his classes were beyond our understanding. Yet, so often you took the time to learn more of what those classes were about and why they interested him.
I remember our calls this last year and how happy you were to be back with Connie. For 30 years Russ you were with her, through the ups and downs, and you never looked elsewhere. I glad that you were happy at last and had your family with you when you left us. Be at peace in your realm of the universe and continue watching over your family!

Dear Joshua, Camryn and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved Father (Dad), Brother, Son, Uncle and Cousin. Russ was my favorite cousin of all and he will be missed by us all. What consoles all of us are the many memories we hold dear to our hearts of times together. Mine will always be the many camping trips our families took together. Alot of good times. My prayers go out to all of you in this sad time...I am thinking of you all...Love, Chrissy

My deepest condolences to the whole Nickerson family, especially Connie, Joshua, Camryn, Uncle Nick, Cousin Dee and Cousin Kevin. I know Russ had a lot of friends and acquaintances who will miss him greatly as well.
Russ was a very likeable person. The world isn't as fun without him. I still tell jokes Russ told me while camping in Holly, Michigan 40 years ago ..... They may be dumb jokes but they still get laughs. It's a 'guy' thing.
Russ! We weren't ready for you to leave yet! I for one will look for you when I get there, to that place where everyone is happy, warm, and loving - devoid of any pain and suffering.
CYL Russ, Your cousin Bill.

I would like to send our deepest sympathies to everyone.
I was reading all of the memories you have of Russ. Unfortunately I was only able to meet him once when he was in Michigan for the 4th of July fireworks. I really liked him alot. He really loved his family so much. He would talk all about his kids and how he was so proud of them and their accomplishments. Thats all he would talk about.
Once again, we are SOOOOOOO sorry for your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to call.
And to you Russ: we will all see you very soon. We LOVE you so much. It sure was way too early for you to leave us. Take care and we will see you soon. All our love, Kim and Chuck Gierthy

The path we traveled in this life was not always in the same direction; yet we have always been connected at the heart. We laughed and cried, pulled apart, and drew back together. We changed our steps in this last dance and reveled in the perfect harmony we created. We anticipated the end of the work day when we would spend the evening together: cooking side by side, playing a game of cribbage, talking, or just snuggling on the couch. We packed all we could into our time together. This last dance with you, my darling, was the one we got right. We didn't know how short our time together would be and yet we lived each day in full appreciation of the gift of being with the one we loved. We didn't know when the last day with you arrived that it was the last day and yet we hugged often; we shared how we felt; we laughed and loved and enjoyed our favorite sound in the world together-the sound of our children laughing together. We marveled at our happiness and appreciated the fullness of our joy. We couldn't have asked for a better last day. And now I find myself sitting in your computer chair hugging your robe because it's as close to you as I can get. How can I continue down this path without you? You are my best friend, my confidant, my love, my life, my very soul. The sum of you and I is more than this physical life. I have to believe this separation is only temporary in the eternal scheme of things and that our paths will merge yet again to bring us back together. I love you and miss you, my Beloved.
