For 43 years, Dennis and Diana Nickell shared their lives, passion, and hearts. Dennis, a Vietnam combat veteran who dealt daily with the aftermath of his 14 months in-country, spent his later years reaching out to veterans and their loved ones, and tried to help share why they should never give up. On Sept. 12, 2021, Dennis joined his brothers in arms in heaven, who never had the chance to have the life he fought for daily. His wife, Diana, still carries on the mission of educating, enlightening, and encouraging those who have paid such a heavy price for freedom.
