Not sure what to say?

I rode across the country with Nick during the summer of 2021. Anyone that had the pleasure of knowing Nick knows what a shining ray of sunshine he was. Nick was spirited, loving, and put his heart into everything he did. Nick was the heart of our team. Almost every morning, Nick lead our team in the morning prayer, demonstrating his commitment to God and his love for all of us. Nick made an impact on every member of our team, and even more so on every individual we spent time with on the...

You were a high spirit and positive friend and brother. I’ll never forget the memories we’ve made on Journey of Hope in 2022, riding in the van together and hanging out at crew stops. I miss and love you Nick.

It was an absolute gift meeting Nick in this lifetime. He shone unbelievably bright. His warmth and kindness was unlike anyone I’ve ever known. Any person who’s had the pleasure of meeting him would surely say the same. I am so very grateful our paths crossed. He will continue to be in my thoughts.

I wish I had gotten to know you better, but the conversations we did have left an impression of positivity and joy in my life. Rest in peace, Nick.

Some of my fondest memories in school were of Nick and his boundless positivity, spirit and kindness. The universe was blessed to have Nick in it, and more laughs and smiles than Nick could have known were all thanks to him. Sending love and blessings to his family and friends.

The world will miss a person as amazing as Nick. I’ll cherish all the memories with Nick, for he is one of the reasons why I remember high school so fondly.

I temember Nick with his bleached beautiful hair cycling with my grandson back in 2021 and all his morning prayers as they would begin the Journey of Hope He was the one that would lead every morning with his prayers. Loved him and he will definitely missed by everyone. RIP Nick and know that he helped many along struggling with disabilities that are so thankful to have met him in 2021 with His Fraternity Brothers. God Bless and condolences to his Family

We met Nicholas in Denver when he was on the cross country bike tour and were moved by his friendliness and kind spirit. Much love and prayers to the entire family.

I had the privilege of going to school with Nick. His humor and energy always stood out, and the memories I have of him will stay with me forever. It’s so hard to lose an old friend. You’ll be missed, Nick.
