Publish in a newspaper
Nicky Scott Spivak, 61, passed away on April 3, 2024 in Augusta, GA.
Son of Edith Shirley Fine and Albert Spivak, Nicky was born on December 11, 1962 in Louisville, KY. Nicky grew up in Louisville, KY, graduating from Atherton High School in 1981, followed by the University of Louisville, and then spent the next several decades living in various places across the country including Tampa, FL, Phoenix, AZ and Augusta, GA.
Nicky loved classic rock and food. There was no vacation with Nicky that didn't revolve around the restaurant plans, nor a visit that didn't involve him walking up to dogs or small babies. Nicky loved being a part of the Jewish community and opening his home to college students and local newbies to come share a meal during the Jewish holidays. Nicky most recently served as the Executive Director of the Jewish Community Center and Federation of Augusta.
Nicky was a loving and supportive father to his two children, Alexis (Michael) Warriner of Arlington, VA and Brian Spivak of Charlotte, NC. Nicky is survived by his two children, as well as his siblings, Randy Spivak and Gary (Brenda) Spivak of Louisville, KY and Shelley (Rob) Kriegshaber of Columbia, SC.
