12/04/2022 Darrell J. "D.J." Nichols I'm sorry to have to spoil the holiday season for the Class of 1970. Darrell J "D.J." Nichols passed away on the day after Thanksgiving, November 25th, 2022.

I found this information on his Facebook page:
"Darrell "D.J." Nichols passed yesterday. D.J. was a kind and generous man, who always gave what he could and lent a hand even when it was a challenge. Our thoughts are with our lovely Linda Nichols today, D.J.'s wife, friend and partner of many years. We are certain our other friends who have passed will be there to meet D.J. as a VIP and usher him to his front row seat. Linda, we send our love and wish D.J. happy pain-free adventures on his journey forward. Until we all meet again, D.J. , God Bless you."

Rest in Peace Darrell.
Rest in Peace Darrell.

We do not remember days, we remember moments (Cesare Pavese). Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened (Dr. Seuss). The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart (Hellen Keller). If ever there is a tomorrow when we’re not together, there is something you must always remember. You are braver than we believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we are apart. I’ll always be with you. (Winnie the Pooh)

Theresa was absolutely passionate about adopting dogs, donating to animal shelters, following her ancestry with a German, Swedish and Irish descent. She had a love for flowers everywhere she was. She loved Saugatuck, Michigan and spent much time there with friends and family. She enjoyed some of life's pleasures including popcorn, the most amazing lasagna (homemade by her), the tulip festival in Holland, MI every year and enjoyed traveling to Europe!
Her sweet and caring memory will live on and she now rests in peace with many of her family including her late father, Leonard F. Zaehler, her late mother, Elizabeth Zaehler, her late nephew, Matthew Zaehler, and ALL of her many dog rescues.
