Nick, you were one of my best friends, despite me telling you that you were just the coolest. It was always fun hanging out with you in P.E., and everyone there will know that I'm very affected by this. You were always funny and had good jokes to tell, and were pretty smart too. You won't be forgotten.

I didn't know Nick, but my grandson, Chris Turner, a friend of Blake Thomas, did. It is so sad that such a young life was taken so soon. I lost my 24 year old son 9 years ago. I know the pain his family and friends are in. My thoughts and prayers are with them. May God Bless and give them the peace and understanding they so need at this sad time.

nick was an amazing friend. He had such a good heart. He was always happy and knew how to make me happy if i was sad. and now just knowing that he is not suffering anymore from the pain he was feeling, makes me look up and smile just to now that he could be looking down and watching over each and every person that knew him. he will be missed and loved.
