Nicholas Boraski

Nick understood the value of higher education. Years ago, when he served on the Board of Regents and I was president of Berkshire Community College, he made sure that UMass and local colleges were supported. He was always approachable, and made decisions at high speed.

My deepest sympathy to Nick´s family. I had the privilege to know Nick through my daughter, who helped care for his wife Ruth. My daughter formed a close bond with Nick through the years and called him Gramps! Nick was a caring exceptional man with high values. Love & prayers...

I remember going to Uncle Nick´s house as a child. He and Ruth were always so welcoming. I am very proud to be the third generation to get an engineering degree from UMass. Kathy Boraski Williams (Chuck´s daughter)

Elder Services extends its sincerest condolences to Nick's family and friends. His was an immense presence in Berkshire County and cared deeply for our community. Elder Services is fortunate that among the initiatives Nick and Ruth were passionate about was our Meals on Wheels Program. He was one of a kind and will be missed.

I am saddened to hear Nick has passed. Prayers for him and his family. Barbara Boraski Vosburgh
