CLAUDE "RED" NICKELS

NORTON, VA – Claude “Red” Nickels, 67, passed away at his residence, Wednesday, April 15, 2015. He was born in Dungannon, VA but had resided his last 33 years in Norton, VA. He was a very generous man who cherished family and friends above all else. His front porch was a gathering place for friends and neighbors to stop by to get advice, share stories and work out the problems of the world. He never met a stranger in life and could rarely go out without running into several people that he had met throughout the years, whether it be from his years at Humphries Coal or what he did best, trading guns and playing cards. He was the most supportive, devoted father and proud papaw that anyone could ever hope to have. There are not enough words to express how much he was loved and how much he will be missed.

He was preceded in death by parents, Oscar and Minnie Nelms Nickels, his brothers, Charlie Nickels and Earl Nickels and a sister, Nancy Perry.

He is survived by a daughter, Denise Stidham and her husband Shane of Knoxville, TN; sons, Randall Nickels and his wife Katherine of Nickelsville, VA, Glen Nickels and Barbara Bennette of Dungannon, VA; grandchildren, Alexandra and Aaron Stidham of Knoxville, TN, Leanne Sluss, Matthew Nickels and Savannah Nickels of Nickelsville, VA,  Tonya Nickels of Mt Carmel, TN; sisters, Eloise Salling of Kingsport, TN, Lucille Orsbin and Mildred Gibson both of Willowick, OH; a brother, Fred Nickels of Dungannon, VA.
