About Me:
I am a proud native Biloxian! The Nicovich family has deep roots in the local community, and I
participate in many events to keep that “connection to home” alive in my heart. I have a particular love
of carnival!
A cradle Catholic, I was raised in Nativity Parish and received all my sacraments there. I became
a parishioner at Our Lady of Fatima when I purchased my home in 2003. Over the years, I have been
active in our faith community as a lector, Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, CCD teacher,
RCIA sponsor and speaker, and I have attended and served “on team” at Cursillo and Arise retreats
in our area.
I live near the bay in a cottage-style home, where I enjoy quiet time with my two precious toy
schnauzers, Boomer and Gracie. We will welcome a new puppy to our family very soon. I am blessed
with the love of my sister, brother, nieces, nephews, and a host of friends who are family!
