My Mom and I were so sorry to hear of Nick's passing. Nick and my Dad, Andy, met at Leech Farm, stayed in contact, and visited every summer until my Dad passed in 2003. He then kept in touch with us at Christmas, always asking how my Mom, Lois, was doing. He was a gentle, caring man. Our thoughts and prayers and with all of you.
