Nicole - I'll never forget the fun we had in SF. Remember the time you had an allergic reaction to your macadamia nut shampoo and we had to get benadryl? I'm so sad that you are physically no longer with us but your spirit lives on through everyone who loves you!

Nicole - Thank you for the days you have been there helping, giving, caring & for the days that have been brighter, happier & richer because of you. If only I knew I was about to lose your smile, I would thank you for the grace, hope and courage you shared. Rest now, dear friend!

Nicole was an intuitive connector, creating community with all those around her through a sense of joint purpose. She did it with an easy, fluid grace. And, she is still doing it. It was an honor to know and work with her.

Nicole, We always said we wished we lived closer to each other, but I really didn't have Heaven in mind as your next address. At least now you can spread your angel wings and pop down to visit me any time you want. Distance no longer exists. Visit me soon, angel. I miss you!

Nicole, your courage and spirit over the last year were inspirational. I learned a great deal from you about dealing with adversity, and I feel honored to have known you. My heart breaks for your family and close friends in their loss, and I wish them peace.

Look Kiki! Just exactly what you would always want, EVERYONE coming together to talk about YOU! (As if! Well sorry, but you are way too spectacular not to celebrate, uncomfortable as it might make you.) I love and miss you so very much.

I received news today you are gone from our world. I know you are in a better place but still can not understand why God take good people from us. I remembered us having lunch in Bryant Park. I laugh remembering u saying "Yes, We are a Bank". RIP I will miss your vibrant spirit

Nicole was a great friend of mine and my sister Lexie. Most of all, she was my birthday buddy. Not a day goes by where I don’t honor her on our birthday. I know she is always there in spirit and looking down on us and making sure that we are fine. Today would have been her 45th birthday . So this above all, I say Happy Birthday to you Nicole Kimber.

Nicole,
You are still my inspiration to living a brave life in my big-girl pants. I always want you to be proud of those whose lives you touched with your fierceness. Thank you for being in my life. We will always miss you!

Wow, this Tuesday is going to be 10 years since my birthday buddy has passed! Not a single birthday of mine goes by where I didn’t honor Nicole’s birthday as well as mine. Not only was she a wonderful person; she was/is still my birthday buddy. I know that she is continuing to look down on us all and make sure we are safe and well.
Nicole's Citi Interview
August 22, 2011
We had a monthly/fun newsletter for the Citigroup LAFC. I had the fun pleasure of interviewing Nicole for the October, 2003 issue. Here is her interview, please enjoy!
Getting To Know…..Nicole Kimber:
Well the suspense is over, California has won a Governor named Arnold and the LAFC has won a charming, funny LDA named Nicole Kimber. And just to clarify, the funniest, smartest California Girl! Miss Nicole was born and raised in Ventura, California where she attended Elementary and High School. Opting to live on the “other coast”, Nicole graduated with a BBA in Marketing and BA in Computer Information Systems from St. Thomas University in Miami, FL. Nicole also has her MBA with a concentration in Finance from Rollins College in Orlando, FL. Nicole applied for a Citigroup LDA position through the career center at Rollins and was promptly contacted (without warning) the day of her graduation, landing an interview on the spot. Her first LDA rotation was in the CRS (Corporate Realty Services) area in Building A. Nicole believes that success should be the outcome of working towards something that is good, not towards something that simply stands a chance to succeed.
And Now….Kimber Trivia: Nicole’s favorite flavor of ice cream is Mint Chocolate Chip (without the chips) – that sounds tricky! Her favorite movie is anything that makes her laugh. Favorite vacation spot is anywhere in the Greek Islands. Favorite spot outside of work is the beach and favorite music is Alternative.
If Stranded On A Desert Island, Nicole would want….. a surfboard, a volleyball & her best friend.
Extra Kimber Trivia: If Nicole could have any job in the world she would want to be the Governor of California – and oh would there be lots of work to do!
Nicole was great fun. Heaven has inherited a fun, happy and positive angel!
Where do I start??

When I think back on my childhood 2 things come straight to mind.... Softball and The Kimbers! My life consisted of softball practice, which Steve coached me and Nicole was on my teams, or sleep overs with Nicole. I can remember many trips in Donna's convertible to the mall where we ALWAYS managed to talk her into buying us matching outfits and way too much candy. I remember the first Billy Clawers (SP) dance that she took me to, and the first time we snuck out of her house after midnight to order pizza from Dominos. I remember my first prank call, which Melissa already spoke about, I remember doing eachothers make up, blue eyeshadow... Lol which should never be allowed. I remember the first time we went snorkeling out at the Anacapa islands, how I got so sea sick going out and she sat with me the entire ride holding my hair and rubbing my back. I remember the ski trip that we were suppose to go on but the night before she got into a little trouble with her Dad so he didn't let her go... I went anyways with the boys:-)! I remember her helping me for hours with my 5th grade state report, and us singing into wooden spoons and dancing like we belonged in the movie Girls Just Want To Have Fun.I remember her trying to teach me how to blow spit bubbles, I never quite figured it out. But what I remember the most about Nicole, which I've noticed everyone has talked about, was her laugh. She had this laugh that would make everybody laugh and forget about any worry they may have! I'd give anything to hear that laugh right now. Nicole, I love you like a sister and I will!
