Dr. Nick has been my dentist for the past 10 years. He was always smiling when I saw him and was so sweet and truly a genuine, great person to be around. I always looked forward to seeing him every year. My deepest condolences to his friends and family.

I was a good friend of Nick in high school and we had a lot of fun times together. He was a great quarterback and made us a proud as a school to have him.
I will always remember that when my daughter was attending UT she had just been home and had some dental work done. She went back to school and called me a couple of days later in a lot of pain(dry socket). I picked up the phone and called Nick and he told me to tell her to come to his office. She went right over and he took care of her and would not even send me a bill. That was Nick and I will always remember him for his kindness and frienship.

He was the best at everything he tried including dentistry,Fatherhood and being a "Vol for Life" !!! You will be missed by everyone who knew and respected you. God's Blessing's to your family..........

Nick and i attended db at the same time. i was two years ahead of him in school. i do remember how talented he was on the football field , his being an hs all-american was really special and well deserved. he has certainly left a fine legacy for his family to cherish. his work with the boys club and other social issues in a supportering manner speaks highly of Nick and his concern for those who are less fortunate is an example of his character. i extend my deepest sympathy to the family. my prayers are with you all. may God bless.

So sorry to hear of Nicks passing. I knew Nicky in junior high and high school. He was one of the warmest people I have been in my life time. I have thought of him often. Last time I saw him (years ago) he was walking down the street in Kingpsort. That BIG warm smile spoke a thousand words. I know his family and all who knew him will greatly miss him.

I was just online looking up Dr. Nick's phone number to make an appt. when I saw the terrible news. He was my favorite dentist - ever. He made "going to the dentist" such a happy experience. I'm so sad. I'll miss how he would say, "how ya doing, Sport?"

Doc Showalter was a person all of us strive to be; he was kind, caring and treated everyone like his own family. I was lucky enough to be there for several of the Tennessee football weekends that he and Mrs. Showalter hosted at their home, each time feeling blessed to know such wonderful people. The stories and life lessons he imparted us will forever be with me. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Showalter family.

Nick and I went through Dobyns Bennett High School together and then were back together at UT Dental School. He going through dental school and I going through dental hygiene school. We were not in any classes together at UT, but there were many memories from D-B! One in particular was chemistry class. I sat in the front and he was in the back row. Almost every day I would have to pick out spit balls from my hair--not only was Nick great at throwing footballs, but he had great aim with spit balls too!! I was just at Emory and Henry Homecoming and the first thing two friends told me when I saw them was that Nick had passed away. He was a great guy, he was a fun guy, and even though I had not seen him in years, I am so sad and sorry for his personal family and his dental family.
October 20, 2012
We will miss him dearly! He was such an amazing man, a great dentist, so kind and funny! Such a gentle soul....we will miss him terribly. God bless his family, friends, and wonderful staff.

Nick was one of the most generous and selfless individuals I have ever met. Every year, he and Gail would house 15 of his "sons" for a Vols weekend. We spent countless hours (usually late at night) laughing at the stories Doc would share. He was a great man who will be dearly missed. We love you Doc and thank you for the memories!! My heart goes out to the Showalter family.
October 19, 2012
He was our dentist for several years, but he also became a friend. We often discussed our grandchildren and how wonderful it was to be a grandparent. We also shared a love of reading. He will be missed by our family.

Nicky was my cousin. I had not seen him since his college days. His mother, Stella, and my mother, Zell McDaniel, were sisters. Stella loved her sons, Nick & Pat. She had a big smile , hearty laugh, and a song for any occasion . Reading the guest book it seems many of the traits that endeared Nicky to all stemmed from his mother. Now they are reunited in heaven.
My sympathy to his family.

I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of "Dr. Nick". He was a great Vol and a great Dobyns-Bennett Indian.
"Nicky" was the quarterback at Dobyns-Bennett when I first started going to games. When he committed to UT I became a Vol fan. It seems like only a few years ago.
His Mom and Dad, Nick and Stella, were great influences on me as I was growing up around Meadowview Golf Course. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

I just saw Nicky last year at Office Max buying things to help out a chronicaly ill friend have a better quality of life. The help and caring he had for friends and patients knew no bounds. I also had him as a dentist while in college. My heart aches for the loss his family is feeling. A great loss for all you knew him. Gone too soon.

October 18, 2012
I never had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Showalter, but he brought a smile to my face every time I passed him on my way to work. As a fellow convertible owner, it was a pleasure to see someone else enjoying their ride as much as I do. He had me beat though when it would drop into the 30's and he would still have the top down and his scarf on enjoying his convertible. I will miss seeing him. I will keep you all in my prayers.

Dentist? Yes, an outstanding one. But #88 was a Warrior Volunteer. One of the toughest that ever wore the Orange. Love to the family. A huge loss for Knoxville and the University of Tennessee.
October 17, 2012
What a shock to find out this sad news of my dear friend Nicks passing. I knew something was wrong because every day as I drove pass and noticed his car was not at the office I first thought Nick's gone on vacation then when the second and third week went by and still no one at the office I actually went by Sat to see a note on the door. I knew something was wrong but had no way of reaching any of the girls in the office. Nick was the kindess dentist you could ever want. He remembered everything about you. Any time he had a new staff person to join the group he would always tell them the unusually things that had happen about you to the new gal on board. Nick knew his patients and I am so glad he was my Dr. and friend for so long. To the girls in the office I know Nick ran a tight ship and it was worth it. Praying for peace and comfort in the following days and months. And might I also add Nick loved and adored his wife, children and grand children he shared many fun trips with me. I know they have some great memories to hold onto.

Dr. Nick has been my dentist ever since I moved to Knoxville 23 years ago. And when I had a family, he became my daughter's dentist, too. I just can't imagine not seeing him anymore.

It was a tremendous shock to learn of Nick's passing in this morning's newspaper. On my last visit, we talked about celebrating our 40 year relationship as dentist and patient. When I visited Nick for an appointment, he always wanted to know where I traveled and we would compare notes on our experiences. I will greatly miss Nick both as a dentist and a friend. May God bring comfort to his family and friends in this time of transition.

Sam Friedlander

Dr. Showalter is the only dentist I've ever been to in my almost 19 years. Every time I went, even though it had been half a year and probably hundreds of patients since he'd seen me last, he always remembered what I was up to and what was going on in my life. He loved hearing about where I'd traveled last and always remembered where I'd most recently been. He always asked about school and was really proud when I finally chose a college and went off to school in Pennsylvania. He was a great man and will definitely be missed. My thoughts are with his family in this sad and shocking time.
Kelly Delozier
October 17, 2012
I felt very lucky to have found such a wonderful dentist. He took pride in his job and treated patients with respect. I was very impressed with how he made sure I wasn't uncomfortable and showed empathy towards his patients. I hope he is now in God's kingdom rejoicing.

Nick Petit

"Doc Show" as we called him, hosted 15 to 20 of Zach's friends from Miami Ohio every single year for almost 15 years. The menu never changed, tickets to a UT game, 20 lbs of beef tender, and more fun than a barrel of monkeys. He was a second father to many of us and sure made each of us feel that we were as special as his own family. The legend will live on through the spirit and energy that Mamma Show, Addy, Zach, Chad, Tate and little Z will undoubtedly carry on.
Lova ya Doc, RIP

My brother, Raymond, posted recently that Nicky was ill--I was really sad to learn that, and then very surprised and saddened to read today of his untimely passing...What a great guy he was! An outstanding scholar, athlete and citizen at Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport. I graduated in 1966, and we were on Student Council together. It is heartwarming to read all the postings that confirm how well Nicky continued to lead his life. Even in their grief and loss, I know that his family can be eternally proud of him. May you find comfort in your memories. Millie (Moseley) Crawford

Our prayers go out to the family of Dr. Showalter. We chose Dr. Showalter from a list of dentists when our insurance changed and we had to change dentists....We're glad we picked Dr. Showalter! He and his office staff always made us feel so welcome and took our mind off of our purpose for being there. Always upbeat! We loved his sense of humor as well as his praise for our good efforts and his guidance towards keeping a healthy mouth. He will be missed!

Gayle and I are thinking of you and sharing your loss of Dr. Nick. we shared some of the best times at Miami, but Will has shared so many more with you generous people. I am sure that Nick enjoyed his family and his kid's friends more than most of us can imagine! Nick is what life is about and we will not ever forget that.
October 17, 2012
Was absolutely shocked to see Nick had passed away. He became my dentist back early 1980's. He then became my son's dentist. He was always such a happy up-beat guy. I loved his personality and he was a great dentist. Always loved his staff, guess he had instilled that "happy life" attitude in them also. He will be missed by many. My prayers to his family.Janice Hall

Patti Strobel
October 17, 2012
I am stunned. When I opened the paper this morning, I saw that smiling face. My husband Cory and all 3 of my sons have been patients of Dr. Showalter since 1984. I always looked forward to my visits and hearing him laugh at how silly life can be. I wish I would have had a chance to thank him for being so wonderful but most of all thank him for giving my youngest son some very powerful life advise. I really believe he helped him to turn his life around. I am not sure he would be doing this well had it not been for Nick. So now, a little too late, I say thank you Nick Showalter. I will never forget you. My heartfelt condolances to his family. You are all in my prayers.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I've been a patient of Dr. Nick for a few years and he made a dental appointment pleasant. I can remember when I asked him if he played for UT because my dad remembered him playing for UT, he just smiled from ear to ear and said it was great to be remembered by someone! Dr. Nick, you will forever be missed!

I knew him only as "my dentist" - or more properly the dentist for my whole family.

I am so saddened by his loss - not only for myself and my family, but for his own, and all who knew and valued him.
