Hello. My name is Elena and I'm italian. On the following days after 9/11 I visited several memorial sites and found out that a girl from San Josè, Ca., had died on one of the planes on that terrible tragedy. I lived in that town in 1984-85 while attending 6th grade at Miner School. I did not know Nicole nor her family, but for that reason (and for something I can't explain) I feel involved as well in their loss. I know San Josè is a quite big town, but maybe I might have crossed her - even if she was just a little child - any time when I was there.

I discovered this site in sept 2001, and since then my thoughts have often run towards Nicole and to those who lost their lives that day. And they were thoughts of regret and sorrow, but also of simpathy and hope.

I wonder how gorgeous Nicole must be now that she's in Heaven. I am sure that she will bless her parents, brothers and sisters and all her friends just as an angel. As beautiful as an angel she was, and her beauty will last forever, untouched, in a place where time stands still.

Please let me post this beautiful lines written by English poet Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830-1894), and let me dedicate them to Nicole's memory. Thank you.

"Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad".

I had the honor & pleasure of meeting Nicole's parents Wayne & Kathy this past weekend. I didn't know Nicole or anyone in this family previously, but I wanted
to let them know how much I was touched and taken back by there strength and the love there is with there family. I wanted them to know that there love and strength
they have in there family is the greatest tribute to Nicole that there can be.
I also wanted them to know how touched I was with there family inviting me into there home and that I hope that my friendship with them is something that I will
be able to see grow, and I admire them for being able to show me the love that there family has in their hearts.
I have been forever touched by this experience and I will never forget it. What a wonderful family Nicole has I know that see is looking down on them from heaven
because of the love in her family and this is the way she would want it to be.

Hi my name is Jeana. I am a cousin of Nicole's it has been a long time since I have visted the site due to the fact that it is still very hard. I miss her a lot. I have her picture in my living room and I have a candle that I have next to it from the September 11th memorial in Seattle in 2002. I have since gotten married and have 7 month old son and I wish that she were still here so that I could share that with her. But I talk to her all the time through prayer. and I will keep all of you in my prayers as I have done since day one. Thank you for creating such a beautiful site that I can look at whenever I am missing her as much as I am right now.
Love Jeana

 

To the family of Nicole;

Your site has berought much peace to my life to see how loved someone can be and how brave.

I named my daughter born sept 14, 2004 after your daughter Nicole, I can only hope that she will possess all the attributes and strength that your Nicole had.

Be assured that God has an angel with him, and she will forever shine in the hearts of all Americans.

Thank you for rasing such a beautiful, loving and brave daughter. She is waiting for you all.

Sincerely,

Debi Gennero

 

Nicole,
I was thinking about you today. I just wanted to say hello and tell you that you are still in my thoughts and prayers. Watch over me on my trip tomorrow. God Bless.
Much Love,

0h my …

I happened upon this site by sheer accident... I was happily searching for Nicole Miller, the dress designer.

I am now moved to tears. What a powerful, amazing place you have created for you daughter… I understand the strength you need to live through this kind of tragedy… I lost a sister to a violent murderer. You have kept her alive, alive enough to touch me, in my life, in this very moment.

Thank you for this…

I'll make this short I just wanted to let your family know that your a hero to me. I go through the passengers from flight 93 and keep seeing the same names the same faces and than a blank because I can't find a reason for putting myself through this pain as I've done so many times before . I feel their is a reason to remember when ever flight 93 comes up either in conversation or a documentary on 9-11 which brings back that day. I wish I could find the words that fits this e-mail to really let you know how I feel but it's hard. I will end now before I loose anymore of what I'm trying to say I'll send my love to all of the ones who lost their family members.I will always keep you in my heart and I mean forever..I'll le t you know who wrote this just so you know that we all care.Robert Hazelton I've done a lot on steroids if you look on the internet.I have book coming out on my life and I wanted to let the public know how I feel about the passengers on flight 93
but they might think I'm using that for other reasons so I'll say it just for Nicole and the passengers in memory of united flight 93

I don’t need to have known Nicole to say I know she was filled with an amazing love for life. The energy in her pictures radiates the selfless love she had for everyone in her life. Thank you Nicole, the passengers, and the flight crew from Flight 93 for having the courage to stop another attack on our Country. This world needs more amazing, beautiful, and giving spirits like you.

May the Lord bless you and keep you in His holy company. May every one of your dreams come true in heaven and may your spirit soar! May the Lord comfort the hearts of your friends and family, forever and always.

Hello my name is Mindy. I am a 24 year old in Orlando, FL. I happened upon Jessica's memorial site when I was surfing goole for the Fashion Designer Nicole Miller. This memorial site is so beautiful and moving. Although I didn't know anyone directly affected by The Event I feel like I knew Nicole. Thank you for making the site.

Just to let you know I bought a rose today named Nicole Carol Miller. It was a beautiful lavender rose that stood out in full bloom at the Rogers Gardens Nursery in Newport Beach California. It had a captivating fantastic fragrance, so I had to have it. It now graces a prominent place in my front yard.

Just watched the movie United 93. I remember when 9/11 happend, how I came home from school and turned on the TV and saw it all on the news.
Now when I saw this movie it touched me deepley and I searched for information about it and found your homepage for your beloved daughter.
No need to say, she was beautiful, had a wonderfull smile and when I saw the pictures I started crying. I mourn for your loss and I wish time
could be turned back, atleast so you could see her once more, hug her and hold on to her, never let go. It's impossible and that makes me even
sader. Can only hope she is in a better place some how... Just wanted to say something after I visited her page.. Be strong, be proud and hold on
to each other! Bye..

I was sitting with my mom, watching a movie on television a few years ago about United Flight 93. We were both sitting close and comforting each other while we cried. Nicole's story broke my heart, while touching it at the same time. What a gorgeous, bright, ambitious young lady. How proud you must be of your daughter. To this day, I often log onto Nicole's memorial website just to read the posts that your family writes to her. Every year on her birthday I think of her, and it makes me smile to read of your celebrations for her. I really don't know anything about any of the other hero's of September 11th. Perhaps it is because I am the same age as Nicole and have the same mother daughter bond that she and her mother had, that I cannot let go of her story. Every single time I look at this website, I cry. I cannot stop the tears, and my heart aches so much. What a brave, strong family you have. Knowing that you are all coping brings me comfort in my own way. God bless your family and your beautiful angel Nicole. I, along with the rest of the world, remember your daughter yesterday, today, and tomorrow. When I see a butterfly, it reminds me of her. I know every single day is hard, but you WILL be together again. You will see your beautiful baby girl again and hold her in your arms. I think of your family almost every day. I pray that she is at peace now, watching over you.

God Bless Nicole Miller's family,
Your tribute to your daughter is beautiful. She would be so proud. She was a beautiful girl inside & out. She had the most beautiful brown eyes I have ever seen! She looked so full of life. I know you miss her so much. I am proud of her for being so brave on that awful day in American History. I hope that she was able to call you before the plane crashed. If not, she will tell you what she wanted to say when she is reunited with you one day. Never give up. She wouldnt want you to!
She loves you and misses you so much. All of America will never forget her!
Thank you for sharing her with us! God Bless each and everyone of her family & friends.
God Bless until you meet again,

Tonight was the first time I watched the movie United 93. I found the events of 9/11 so disturbing that I guess it's taken me this long to even prepare myself emotionally to watch it. The movie was intense, and so absolutely terrifying and shocking, that I immediately logged onto the internet and wanted to find out more information about who the victims/heroes were. I am not exactly sure what it is about Nicole....but something about her made me want to know more. I found her gaze to be irresistible. Almost as if she could have been my friend, she could have been me. She has a smile so beautiful and eyes so deep. I found myself sitting here gazing at her photo, feeling terrified for her, what she must have gone through. What courage it must have taken to do what she and the others did, they fought til their death, they fought against terrorism to save our country..........Nicole did something so brave, and her legacy will live on.....Her story and your poems for her, and journal entries inspire me to show my loved ones how I feel towards them....for this, I thank her and you. Thank you.

 

Hello,

I happened to find Nicole's website while looking
for information on 9/11. I did not know Nicole, but
by visiting this site I feel as if I did. What a
wonderful young woman, daughter, sister, fiance',
friend, and American Hero. My heart goes out to all of
the families who lost loved ones on that day. Know
that all are being prayed for.

To Nicole's loving family and friends, you are all in
my prayers. Take comfort in that you will see her
again someday when we are all called home to God's
Kingdom. We cannot feel life's losses without first
feeling the blessings of its fullness. Nicole was a
blessing.

If you are ever in need of someone to listen to you
talk about your Nicole, please email me at
di_shri_82@yahoo.com. I know I cannot take away your
pain, but I can help you celebrate Nicole's life.

God bless you all

for Nicole-Miller 11-sept-2001

I'm an Italian man, 45 years old.
I don't speak English ... I don't write very well in English ... I'm writing in Italian.

Girando per internet ho trovato siti che parlavano dell' 11 settembre, e fra questi un sito con i nomi di tutte le persone decedute .. tantissime , quasi 3000, e di ognuna di esse la foto.
Fra i 3000 morti, anche bambini, ... tantissimi ragazzi e ragazze ...
Ho cliccato alla lettera M .. a caso .. così ... e ho visto una foto di una ragazza dal sorriso solare, Nicole.
Ho cliccato poi sul sito http://www.nicolemillermemorial.com/nicole.htm ... e ho visto le foto di questa ragazza sorridente con i suoi cari, e le parole .. le lettere che gli hanno scritto chi l'amava e l'ama.

Nel leggerle e nel vedere le sue foto ho pianto come un bambino, qui in Italia ora è l' 1 di notte, dormono tutti, ho pianto di nascosto .. le mie figlie e mia moglie mai mi hanno visto piangere ... davvero Lei, Nicole, stanotte con il suo sorriso ha rappresentato e rappresenta il sorriso di tutte le persone morte in quel tragico giorno.

Ho due figlie di 18 e 14 anni .... i loro nomi sono Chiara e Michela, io ... io domani ... domani le abbraccerò, e quando le abbraccerò vorrò abbracciare anche una terza ragazza .. la vostra Nicole, ..e con Lei anche tutte le altre persone morte l'11 settembre.

Vorrei dire ai genitori di Nicole, e alla sorella ... vorrei dire loro che non sono soli. vorrei abbracciare anche loro, Vi abbraccio.

Sono uno sconosciuto che abita in Italia, .. però voglio con questa mail portare la mia solidarietà, il mio rispetto e la mia stima per Nicole e per i suoi cari.

Siete persone meravigliose.

Con Stima ...

i just wanted to say... im sorry. I just happend to come across Nicoles website and wanted to write. Life is so up and down and the older i get i find this out more and more. I wanted to be a soldier every day of my life since i was young (the daughter of a Marine Corp Officer) too long to explain how much it was a part of me but life threw a curve ball and i had children (twins) and knew i couldnt become a pilot in the Navy i would be taken away from my babies. Something i never knew i wanted... for years after that i struggled with joining. I had a love of my country and wanted to do something... but Life didnt allow it with many things goin on in our lives (my husband and mine) . Sept 11th has been so hard on me there isnt a 9-11 that goes by that im not tore up and emotional... I now have a baby girl. She is 18 months old and i never knew the bond you could have between mommy and daughter. (I love my boys and my girl but with my daughter I was able to enjoy the baby time and not be scared to death because I knew nothing about children and knew nothing about how to take care of two LOL) i just wanted to say Sept 11th touched so many lives and i just happened to come across this website and i felt the urge to write. Im so sorry for your loss and cannot explain why life unfolds the way it does... but Your Nicole was beautiful and will be missed by thousands who never knew her. I pray every year and every time i think about 9-11 for the families... so you are always in someones prayers and thoughts.

God Bless you and Bless America

love

Dear Nicole's family,
I am sorry for your loss. I know how it is the lose someone you care about. About ten years ago this coming up Feb 14th, 1998, I lost my best friend that i knew for 20 pluss years. He passed away a week after having spinal cord surgery on his back. Though he was not a family member per say, he was like a brother to me and his family where my second family. His parents treated my younger brother and I like second sons. I have since moved away from there but I still keep in touch with his family and try to make it by there to see his grave. To this day, when I think of him it still hurts, but I know he is up there in heaven watching over me and his family helping us out and keeping us safe. I came across your web page and it is cool. Nicole sounds like a butiful,caring and wonderful person. She had a lot of love in her heart. I pray for you and your family and all the family's of all the flights and the people in the world trade centers. My god help you with your loss and warm your hearts in knowing one day you will see her again. please send me more updates on this web site.

God Bless you and America,
Jason

Não existe fatores explicavéis que nos indica qual o começo ou o fim de uma bela jornada. Mas a certeza é que em mentes de pessoas queridas os bons momentos que tiveram contigo sera eterna até um próximo portal.

 

I didn't know Nicole. I ran across this on mere accident and after reading the first poem, I couldn't stop. I was drawn to her. I just wanted to let you know that this site is beautiful. She is a beautiful person and she was so lucky to have you all in her life. Thank you Nicole. Thank you for your bravery. Thank you for your heroism. You're family is so blessed to have had you! You must smiling down on them.

To Nicoles family,

My love to you all. I have been reading the tribute for weeks now and feel so very close to her. What an angel she is. I was a phone center operator when the attacks happened and I will never forget the pain I felt for the many families I spoke to. It has made me a better person I truly believe. Please, know that your precious Nicole will be thought of everyday and prayed for every night. She is watching over us all and is bringing joy and love to all in heaven. God's blessing,

Linda Kaufmann

 

Good Morning,
I was a bit afraid to post a message in this website because I didn't know Nicole at all. I introduce myself : My name is David Dabrat and I live in France, Bayonne to be more specific (It's in the West South of the country). I came to this site nearly 3 years ago when I found a memorial about the tragic events of the 9/11 wh and when I saw that Nicole was one of the victim! My god I couldn't imagine that there was such young people who died that awful day! It's been 3 years (as I could remember) that I know this site and I finally I decided to post a message to tell you how strengh you are! When I look at the pictures it was so hard to imagine that Nicole wasn't here anymore! Even if I didn't know her with this site it's like she was a friend of mine! I just wanted to tell you that and thanks if you took the time to read it. I often come in this site and I'll think of you the 4th of March! Thank you

 

hellow Nicole
I never had the chance to know you. I am from Norway and I just happened to look into this website..
I have watched the movie United 93 and will honored every single passenger on that airplane for being that brave..
my thoughts goes to family and friends

its so sorry that you only got to be 21 years old
