It is with profound sorrow and excruciating pain that I bring you this news...

Stacey, my best friend, wife of 13 years, mother of my three gorgeous kids, passed away this evening after a long and hard-fought battle with cancer.

Many of you remember her as "NICOmom" here on the boards...

She was the driving force behind everything we've accomplished here, and always supported my dream of building the biggest Nissan site on the web.

I spent a little time this evening reading her old posts and missing her terribly.

We put together a memorial website for Stacey at http://www.staceychilds.com, I hope you'll take a minute to browse it, watch her video and remember her.

Hug your loved ones in her memory, and be good to each other.

If you wish to help out, please consider contributing to one of the charities listed on the memorial page.

I also request everyone refrain from hitting Greg up via IM as he is dealing with this tragedy.

God Bless Stacey as she is looking down on all of us.

It saddens me to hear this news.I knew she was fighting this, and she did well to go on this long.I am sad that I never got to meet her, or try her awesome BBQ.....As I have said in the past, I will do what I can from here for you.May she rest in peace, and I will miss her posts.She seemed to have a sarcastic streak, just like me.... I'm sure we would have got on well, and had a lot of laughs together.Keep strong Greg.

Love Andy and Cath.
