I just wanted to let Nick's family and close friends know that I'm sorry for their loss and that my heart goes out to each of them. Nick and I were friends throughout grade school. It's been quite a while since he and I last saw each other, but I have nothing but fond memories of him and always remember he was one to make people laugh.
