Nick lived next door for a few years down on Marshall Ave. He was a teenager then. He was hard working, mowing the lawn, taking care of his brother & sisters and helping me carry heavy things. He was always happy to lend a hand. Nick started fishing and really loved it. Nick loved his brother & sisters and had a sence of resposibility for them far beyond his years.
Happy fishing Nick,
Love, The Gammon Family

Dear Julie, Amy, Hannah and Luke,
Nick was always a great person. I remember being a kid and seeing him around the neighborhood, doing things nighborhood kids do. My girl friends and I had a feud with the boys of the neighborhood, including him. I remember the great times we had in high school. We'd spend a lot of time at the beach at the harbor, and the lighthouse. Those were the best years of my life. I know it's hard, but he has his family, his friends, and everyone else who knew him, keep his memory alive.
Love,
Cristin
