To the Caccese family,
I knew Nick from when I was with KC 345. He was a great person and the first one to shake my hand when I made my first degree. He was a true gentleman and will be missed. My prayers are with you.

To the Caccese family;
My heartfelt sympathy to each of you in the loss of Nick. I remember working for Nick when I worked in the Dietary department before transferring to another department. I remember him as a very caring person, strict, but very fair, and a hard worker. He was always on the go. He will be missed by many.
