Very sad to hear of Nick's passing. Have lots of fond memories from the trips attending OSMCA conventions with the Lakehead Sheet Metal Contractors Association. Nick sure loved life and always made people laugh. He was always up for karaoke and would pick the perfect songs. Going to miss you buddy....thanks for the great memories and your gift of friendship.
