In high school she was on the cheerleading squad. She met the love of her life Scott at a Campus Bible Study. When her mother met Scott at a football game, she said that's the man you're going to marry. She graduated from Frostproof High School and went on the East Tennessee State University to complete a bachelors degree. This is also where she could cheer on her beloved Tennessee Volunteers. She married Scott and moved to partner in ministry with him as they served together faithfully at Morganton First Church Of God in Morganton, NC where Nicole was a cheerleading coach for Freedom High School. Upon moving to Florida to serve together at Church In The Gardens when Kaitlyn was 3 months old, she devoted herself to her family and her home. Olivia was born 4 years later and Alexis completed the family in 2011. Nicole poured her life into her children and her husband. She was a wonderful wife, full of grace and dignity. Nicole had a passion for worshipping God, a woman strong in her faith. She served the women's ministry at Journey Church with great love and dedication, paying attention to every detail to be an encouragement to all. She will be remembered by family and friends as an example of love and kindness like no other.
