Haven Ann Nichting, born September 29, 2025. Passed away at the University of Iowa Hospital, October 24, 2025. She lived three amazing weeks filled with love, family and friends.
She was the beloved daughter of Kolby and Danelle Nichting and little sister to Vera Nichting. From the moment she was born to the moment she passed away in mom’s arms she knew nothing but love.
She showed everyone her strength and perseverance. She was quickly named Goldy Locks in the hospital because everything had to be perfect and if she didn’t like it she would let you know. She fought the hard fight and gave us time to spend with her.
