Niecy loved life; her aura exuded love, every person she met was guaranteed to walk away with a smile. Throughout her fight, Niecy's faith was anchored; her strength encouraged those that meant to encourage her. She loved The Lord and she trusted Him in a way that allowed her to live and fight while embracing every moment.
