Nicholas (Nick) Vincent Mirante, 19, died suddenly on February 16, 2015, in Atlanta, Ga. He was born May 14, 1995 in Everett, Wash. to parents John and Lisa Mirante. Nick enjoyed playing fast whether it was by foot, tricycle, bike, rollerblades, skateboard, quad, and of course his car. He enjoyed playing sports, including soccer and baseball, hiking, going to the beach, which usually ended with a very large bonfire, and working on his car. Nick was an avid Seattle sports fan who loved the Seahawks, Mariners and Sounders and looked forward to the return of the Sonics. When relaxing he enjoyed his time with friends and family participating in activities including watching movies and documentaries, listening to music, playing video games, and just hanging out. Nick loved his family and friends dearly and was always willing to help, support and be there for them when needed. He often sacrificed his own well being for the benefit of others. Nick had a great smile and sense of humor, which were endearing traits to everyone around him. Future plans for Nick included helping others in need.
