IN MEMORIAM

Past President Neil ‘Nick’ Nikkinen, MAI, CAE, AAS, CFE, passed away in November after a battle with COVID. Nick moved to Florida in 1985 where his nearly 30 years of real estate appraisal experi- ence began. He left his footprint in Hernando, Putnam, Orange and, most recently, Marion County. Nick was a well liked and respected appraiser. Prior to being the FCIAAO Past President, Nick served many years on the Executive Board. His contributions to the Chapter would start in 2001 when Nick was elected to serve as a Director. He would spend 11 years on the Board culminating with his Presidency in 2014. It was his love of photography, that you would find him at Chapter events with a camera in his hand and a smile on his face. Not only was Nick active in his professional career, but also in his personal life. The impact of his kindness and guidance was also felt by his work as a Board Member for Interfaith Emergency Ser- vices, Chairman of the Camp Kiwanis Foundation Trustees, and as a member of Church of Hope First Impressions team.
