Debbie, so sorry to hear of Nick's passing. I hadn't seen you all for quite awhile, but Nick was the kind of guy that once you met him, you felt like you knew him all your life. God has a plan for us all, and even though Nick has gone home, he will always live on in our hearts. Good-bye to a gentle giant of a man. God Bless you and your family.

I always thought of Nick as one of the nicest, most gentle people I'd ever met. When Debbie & I worked together, he would bring us lunch that he had made & it was the first time I'd ever had a SlawDog! WOW, what great food. Your music will live on in our hearts as it touched so many. You will be sorely missed, Nick.
