Nicholas R. Francis

Nick,

It's been along time since we last hung out but I know that you will be missed terribly. I still remember when we were kids hanging out at your house all the time; from playing in the fort out back when were little to all night game sessions to drinking beer and well more all night game sessions (not to mention the always fun little excursions to the dingole, like the time we burned up all of the past school year's papers and stuff). You were one of the best friends anyone could...

Nick,
I will always be humbled by your genuine love and concern for others. Your spirit could never be held within the limits of your mortal body. I know you will contine to spread your love to all from beyond.
I feel your light still! Aunt Nikki

I was very sorry to hear about Nick passing away. Nick and I were close friends throughout highschool and shortly after. Unfortunately due to life I had lost contact with him and have not seen him in almost three years. I remember Nick very well though, he was a very nice guy who always laughed and loved to refer to me as punk-monkey. Nick never let his condition get him down and lived a normal life and made many friends along the way. Nick you will be missed buddy.

I was very sad to hear about Nick's passing. He was a great guy and he had a great personality, he always made me smile. I am Very glad and proud to have known him and have him in my life, to me he will always be family, to me he will always be my cousin. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family. Nick will always be an angel. I will miss his scene of humor and his personality.
With this said, I leave my final thoughts and prayers and I just want to say "Nick I love you and I will miss...

I was very saddened to hear of Nick's passing. I hold a lot of good childhood memories of Nick close to my heart. One thing that I will always remember is the smile that Nick always had on his face. Smiles are contagious and despite however and/or whatever Nick may have been going through he always walked around with a smile on his face. Throughout the years I did not maintain contact with Nick however he will always be remembered and greatly missed.

To the entire Francis family you have my condolences. I was lucky to know Nick through high school and he was the kind of guy to always make you laugh and smile. I wish that I had stayed friends with him after that time, but life is like that. I am glad he had people who loved him and stood by him. He will be missed by everyone he knew.

Knowing Nick was a gift. There isn't a person in the world that cared as much as he did, he could brighten the darkest day. the memories I have of him I will hold dear to my heart..Some of them I will laugh at, especially the kitten that Nick gave me named zim zim..I will miss you..May You Rest In Peace.

I'm so sorry for the Francis family's loss. I remember Nicky as a cute little boy from Church. He was so happy and full of life! He truly did bring Christ's light into people's lives.

I was sad to hear about Nick’s passing. He was in my thoughts and prayers over the past several weeks. I feel that I was blessed to know him. I remember working with him at Big Y … He always made the time pass by quicker with his ‘Nick’ personality and making jokes. He will truly be missed but I am glad I had the chance to know him. Rest In Peace Nick.
