Honoring Niki Raap: Assistance for Funeral Costs

We are the family of Niki Raap, AKA Nym and a few other online aliases. Niki passed away suddenly Monday, from Deep Vein Thrombosis. She would have turned 37 next week.

Niki was warm, sweet and outgoing, in person but especially online, and she touched so many of our lives in ways both large and small, and will be deeply missed by her family, friends and fiancee.

We are asking, only for those who are able, for assistance with her funeral expenses. Any small amount will be deeply appreciated, but please don't put yourselves at risk financially.

We are absolutely floored by the generosity of Niki's friends. We've upped the goal a little for anyone who would still like to donate but hasn't yet. Her mom and dad are planning a trip to Michigan and a separate memorial service for her family there.
