Oviedo, FL

Danielle Nicole "Nikki" Churchwell-Bell of Oviedo, Florida, transitioned from her earthly home to her Father's heavenly mansion Monday, Jan. 23, 2023.

Nikki was born Feb. 5, 1980, in Sandusky, to Franklin Churchwell and Mary Harris-Churchwell. Nikki accepted Christ as her personal savior at an early age and leaned and depended on Him throughout her life as a source of strength and guidance. She was a member of Ebenezer Baptist Church, Sandusky, and later Rockhill Baptist Church in Florida.

Nikki married the love of her life, Freddie Bell, on May 28, 2005. Their love is timeless and gifted us all with their two amazing children, Taylor Bell and Tyler Bell (TNT the Dynamic Duo). Nikki dedicated her life to being the best wife, phenomenal mother, and an encourager and uplifter of family and friends.

Nikki was a proud 1998 graduate of Sandusky High School, Bowling Green State University (Bachelor's in Criminal Justice), and University of Phoenix (Master of Business Administration). She spent the bulk of her career shining in management at Wal-Mart where she touched countless lives as Ms. Danielle. Nikki was the Founder of TNT Creations alongside Taylor and Tyler putting smiles on many faces with their custom tumblers and apparel. Nikki partnered with her husband at the helm of TNT Transportation and 4 Bells Logistics. Nikki was a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta Epsilon Omicron (Eleven Images of Excellence) and R E Williams Chapter #54 Order of the Eastern Star PHA.

Nikki leaves to cherish her memory her husband, Freddie; daughter, Taylor; son, Tyler; parents, Mary and Franklin (Rozelia); sister, Yolanda K Churchwell; parents-in-law, Freddie Jones and Doris Bell; brothers-in-law, Marrio Bell and Antonio (Erica) Jones; sister-in-law, Andrea Webster; godsisters, Krystal Scott, Donisha Amison, and Jocelynne Ranson; godbrother, Samaje Humphries; best friend, Ebony Brown; the other best friend, Jessica Miller; and a humongous host of family and friends.

A parade of loved ones too numerous to count led by her maternal grandparents, Henderson Harris, Minnie Harris and Johnnie Harris; paternal grandparents, James Churchwell Sr. and Pauline Churchwell Bumphus; and sister-in-law Keshia Rachelle Bell awaited her at the pearly gates.

Nikki's homegoing will be celebrated with a memorial at 1 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 18, 2023, at Ebenezer Baptist Church, 1215 Pierce Street, Sandusky, Ohio, 44870. A balloon release will follow immediately in the church parking lot.

As the originator of the BEST parties, in true Nikki fashion, friends are also invited to celebrate her life and legacy after the church service at 4:30 p.m. at UAW Local 913, 3114 Hayes Ave., Sandusky.

Condolences and cards can be shared with the family via mail at 1413 E. Larchmont Dr., Sandusky, Ohio, 44870.
