Nicole Faye “Nikki” Templin, 34, of Lebanon, PA, passed away peacefully on June 10, 2026.

Nikki was born into a loving family and spent her life bringing joy, laughter, and unconditional love to everyone fortunate enough to know her. She had a heart larger than life and a unique ability to brighten any room the moment she entered it. Her warm smile, infectious personality, and signature “rock on” hand gesture became trademarks that family and friends will forever cherish.

Nikki enjoyed spending her time working on puzzles, coloring, and shopping. While these hobbies brought her happiness, it was the love she shared with others that truly defined her life. She never met a stranger and had a remarkable gift for making everyone feel welcomed, valued, and loved. Her kindness, compassion, and joyful spirit left a lasting impression on all who crossed her path.

She is survived by her loving father, David Templin; mother, Connie Templin, and fiancé, Rick Robinson; sister, Samantha Templin, and fiancé, Caleb Koschnick; brother, Brandon Templin, and wife, Brianna Templin; cherished niece and nephew, Avery and Rowan Templin; and brother, Dylan Templin. Nikki is also survived by the dedicated caretakers and staff from her group home, who became an important part of her extended family and provided her with friendship, support, and care throughout the years.

She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents; maternal grandfather; beloved brother, Davey; paternal aunt, Kit; and paternal aunt and uncle, Dawn and Bud.

Nikki’s life was a beautiful reminder that love, kindness, and joy are gifts meant to be shared freely. Though her time with us was far too short, the memories she created and the love she gave will remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved her forever.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Nikki’s life on Friday, June 19, 2026, at Christman’s Funeral Home in Lebanon, PA. A viewing will be held at 10 a.m., followed by a funeral service at 11 a.m.
