Heartbroken to hear of Niqi´s passing. We were fortunate to have met Niqi and family over 20 years ago as neighbours and have remained friends ever since. Niqi was intelligent, kind, funny and wise. An absolutely wonderful mother who was always calm and had the right words to say. This world will not be the same without Niqi. We join Russell and family in their grief and offer our support to the family.

So sad to hear Niqi has passed away. I have known her since the PhD days and know her as a lovely caring person. Stay strong Russell. Lots of love from Henry and Sharon
