Tia Archuleta,
My heart goes out to you and the girls, but please remember that Nickolas is not hurting anymore and is now in heaven with his dad, Grandma and Grandpa and Tio Jose. They are takeing care of him now. He is up there playing cards with Tio Jose.
Lucy and Tona,
You guys got to have his last dinner with him and know that he loved you guys for that.
Stevie,
I know you are going to miss your brother, and know that he is going to miss you, Tina and the girls. I remember visiting him and him telling me about all his pictures he had on the wall and on top of his dresser. And how he mentioned that Brittany was his favorite. He loved all your girls and I am sure that they will all remember thier Uncle Nick. He is going to be hard to forget.
May God be with you all right now and to help you all in this time of sorrow. Let the healing begin and know he is whole again. He loved you all greatly,
My prayer and thoughts are with you all

I remember the first time I met Nick, it was about 12 years ago. Geri and I were going to a bar, when we walked in I noticed a big guy that I thought was the bouncer "oh my god, he's huge!" I said. Geri laughed "oh monica, this is my boyfriend Nick." I said hi, I was so embarrased but he just laughed and said hi back. From that day on he always made fun of me. He was always fun to be around and a good friend and was always smiling about something. My family and I will miss him. Rest in peace Nick.

Tia Arcelia and Familia,
I am so very sorry to hear about my cousin Nick passing. Our hearts and our prayers are with you in your time of need. He is truly in a better place now that he has returned to our sweet lord in heaven. I spent many a day at your house when we were growing up. I remember stopping by everyday after school to babysit or just hang out. We use to open a side window to the house and play Arctic Circle. Lucy and Tona surely remember that.
May he finally rest in peace!!
Just know that we pray for you, pray with you, and hold you in our thoughts during your trying times...Love you all, Katherine & Richard Warren

To Nicks Family ,
You don't know me but i was lucky enough too know Nick and honored enough too have him stand behind me in my wedding , something you never forget ! Nick and i was not long ,long time friends , but from day one he was someone that I was comfortable enough with that it felt like i knew him all my life . I was very blessed too know Nick and have him in mine and my families life for the amount of time that we did !!!
Nick and i would just play fight back an forth all the time , I remember Nick for loving watermelon an after that i would call him my watermelon head :-) , so everytime id go to a store an see a watermelon , right away it would bring the biggest smile too my face as i thought of how we played an fought .
I love Nick with my heart an soul an always will , he'll never be forgotten in my household .
Too his family from mine ...we send out our deepest condolences an prayers an may god bring comfort too you at this time of sorrow an hardship !
RIP NICK ..love you always !

While remembering Nikki I appreciate the time he took to get to know me and my family. Sometimes cousins are just cousins but I'm glad to say he was my friend too. I know Grampo Giron, Grandma Nella and my dad have welcomed him home with open arms. I can hear him calling "Nikki, get over here"

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
