It is with great sadness that the family of the late Nina Hicks of Springdale, NL, age 70, announces her passing on Monday, June 25, 2018 at Springdale, NL.

Nina Norman was born to Alex & Hazel Norman in Pacquet on May 2 ^nd , 1948. Nina was one of seven children. On May 1 ^st , 1965 Nina Married Norman Hicks of Springdale and together they raised a family of four girls. Nina and Norm resided in Springdale for most of their lives with ten years spent living in Daniels Harbor and Nanisivik.

She was a lover of all things 'outdoors'; she was an avid walker and enjoyed her times out in boat and on the quad for a ride. Berry picking, entertaining people, volunteering at a variety of ministries in her church and just being a friend to so many was what kept Nina happy and engaged. Nina was a committed Christian for most of her life, long time member of Springdale Pentecostal Church and served her Lord faithfully. Church attendance was a regular part of her life and she loved to worship, hear God's word preached and to pray.

Family meant the world to Nina, her husband, children, grand and great grandchildren were the centerpieces of her life; her concern was always for their wellbeing. Often Nina would be heard praying for her family, asking for protection and help for her loved ones.

On June 25 ^th , 2018 Nina Hicks ended her battle with cancer, she graduated from this earthly abode and entered into her heavenly rest; she is gone but will not be forgotten!
