Nicole, you were one of the first people I’ve met when I was born. I’ve gotten to know you for almost 18 years. You’ve seen me grow up and I’ve seen you grow up. We shared countless memories and shared many laughs.
Nicole, I will be missing you everyday. I’ll forever live in your memory. You unknowingly changed my life. Love you big sis. <3 - From your little brother Michael Adam Koteles

I met Nicole for the first time my junior year of high school, and she was a senior. We had psychology 6th block together. She was extremely sweet and kind and was a genuine friend to me at a time when nobody else was. Although she was insecure, she was incredibly beautiful.

Nicole and l used to work together, she was one of the first people that talked to me there. She was very friendly and easy to talk to. We bonded over bands, makeup, and pretty much everything. I really liked her unique style and she would always make me laugh.
Thank you for being so kind to me.
You will forever be one of the coolest people I've ever met.
I love you Nicole, I will meet you in the next life. Always thinking of you.

My favorite memory with Nicole was on a trip in Monterey. I was best friends with Nicole’s sister, Amanda, and on their family trip we shared a room together. Me, Nicole, and Amanda spent that night blasting our favorite songs, braiding Nicole’s hair together, and laughing doing each others makeup. I will always remember Nicole to be funny, smart and kind. Sending love to her family.

Nicole, I’m so glad that I had you as my cousin. Even though we’ve only hung out a handful of times due to being miles apart. Reading what other people have to say about you makes me wish I could’ve gotten to know you more.
I remember visiting you and the family back in 2019 and I will forever cherish the pictures and memories we have together. You were so bubbly and carefree. I’m sorry that you endured so much since then. I hope you can live in peace now. I love you.

Fly high our sweet girl.
I will never forgot your last visit in the Philippines. How you complain with about having egg as your side dish for dinner and the coke not in a can but literally in a plastic with straw. I can still picture your face of confusion and laughter.
We may have short list of memories together but you will be in our hearts forever. We love you Nicole.

I was a fellow military brat aswell. I don't remember as much since we were so little at the time but I remember the house parties we had while she lived at Davis-Monthan. I remember the countless karoake and her parents avatars are still on my wii. I remember some sleepovers here and there. I also remember the orange soda she accidently spilled in my parents' van. All those wonderful little moments. Rest in peace.

I was friends with Nicole from 7th grade to freshman year of high school. At that time in my life I was in about the same place she was in these recent times. I don’t remember a lot from that point in my life but I do remember the art class I had with Nicole in 8th grade. It was probably the only class I actually enjoyed in middle school. Nicole, a mutual friend and I would spend the whole class talking about conspiracy theories and creepy stories we heard instead of doing our work. For some reason our teacher still adored Nicole and I to the point where one time our teacher let us go outside and get pizzas from her husband that she had for her art club. She let us take a piece which everyone else got kind of mad at.
I was scrolling through our old messages after I heard of her passing and I always remembered she’d call me “emo girl” and one of the last times we talked she said “I love you emo girl”. I’m not sure why but that’s one of the things I always remembered from her. I wish we were closer in these last few years and maybe we would’ve been if we both stayed at Salinas High.
Nicole, when I knew her was always so bubbly and was always laughing. I will forever remember her in that way and will take what happened and what I wish I could’ve done with me forever. Rest easy, I hope you’re at peace now.

I first met Nicole because a mutual friend of ours, Noah, sent me her instagram saying that we had similar music tastes and would probably hit it off. We talked through instagram for a while and eventually met up at the skatepark in hollister with help of my friend Owen. She walked up carrying a bottle of sprite and she was slightly shy at first but we eventually went to goodwill and got food. We continued talking on instagram after this and I remember noticing that she was following Michael so I asked her how she knew him because we were friends and she explained that he was her brother and I found it to be a mindblowing coincidence at the time. I eventually made plans for Me, Nicole, and Michael to go to this upcoming house show on Halloween in salinas. The day of the show came and I paid my other friend 30 bucks to pick her and Michael up from a friend’s house. We all hung out at the show in a large group and eventually split off to the nearby park and messed around on the swings and had a really fun time. I hung out with Nicole a handful of times after this but that show was and will be one of my fondest memories spent with her. Nicole was also a very thoughtful person, the best example of this that comes to mind is when she held a countdown for my mom’s birthday shortly after her passing.
Though our time spent together was short, it was a really fun and memorable chunk of my life and I hope to meet you again in the afterlife Nicole. Sorry me and Sarah couldn’t play Xbox with you I hope that you can watch shameless up there and they have lots of sprite and noodles.

I briefly knew Nicole in the months of August - November 2022. I was introduced through a friend of mine at the Hollister skatepark. My first memory of Nicole was her arriving to the skatepark on this hot day with a bottle of sprite in hand, offering it to both of us. Nicole was a bit shy, but generous and caring towards us. We all talked and laughed about the mutual friends we had between us until we decided we were hungry and went to get something to eat. We ate and laughed more about friends and also the pictures on each other’s I.D. cards debating which ones were the worse photos. We then went thrifting at the local goodwill and found a few costumes items and clothes for the coming October months. As we left to drop off Nicole at home, I learned that Nicole and I liked similar hyperpop artists such as ericdoa (aka dantered) and talked about how we liked his song “finale”. I would not hangout with Nicole very many times after this day, besides a few times i saw her at a local show, but this memory of her will always stick with me. She was a sweet person for the time that i knew her and i wish i could’ve gotten to know her more. I know that she would’ve added a lot of positivity into this world with her personality and genuine care for others. I pray for her and may God rest her soul.
