WE'LL ALL BE TOGETHER SOON ENOUGH. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. ...

Never was a warm and gracious gentleman as Nick. From the time I had the fortunate opportunity to have been befriended by Nick through my beloved friend Jilly, I had always seen why he was so well admired . He will be missed dearly.

Nick and I shared many fonds memories together. He'll be missed by many, me included.
