AL Greene. Nicki lived
here in Bolingbroke with
her husband Kenny Greene
and her two daughters
Sydney & Abigail Greene
and many extended fam-

friends.
" Nicki was only 52 years
young when God called
her home on May 20, 2018.
Nicki was a blessing to all
who were fortunate enough
to know her. She was a

beautiful woman inside

personality, unrelenting
wit, a magnetic smile and
a laugh that was unforget-
table - the kind of laugh
that would make you laugh
just because she did.
I enjoyed lots of those
laughs over the years, and
she was always the life of
the party. I remember Nicki
for her dancing. She and
Kenny were the stars of the
dance floor and even in the
car, a store - didn't matter,
if Nicki heard a song she
loved, she'd start dancing.
She also loved pretty
clothes and loved to shop.
When I hear the word
bling, I think of Nicki. She
always looked beautiful and
put together and this was
another reason to be drawn
to her.
She owned and operated
