Unfortunately, I did not have the priviledge of meeting Nick. However, I
have spoken with many who did. Those who knew Nick as a child, as well as those who had more recent contact with him, all
speak so highly of his wonderful character. If it is at all possible to feel
somene's God-given spirit through others, I truly feel the spirit of your
son. You were blessed to have him in your lives. My thoughts and
prayers will continue to be with you and your loved ones.

Certainly this is one of the toughest things in life and while we know Nick is in a better place it is so hard for the family and friends left behind. My prayer is that you will all discover something positive in his death whether it is even greater empathy for others or greater reliance on God and Christ. I know that is easy to say and hard to do so my prayer is for strength for your entire family. I am sure many people grieve with you in this loss and pray for your solace.
YIC,
