Nicholas Hamel

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Hamel,

It is with a heavy heart we learn of the passing of your son, Nick. We did not know Nick personally, but it appears he mirrors his amazing sister Erika, who is the care taker of our two small children. We hope you find comfort in the memories of your son during this most difficult time.

With Sincere Sympathy,
Mandi & Eric Sutton

Dear Don, Lynda, Erika and Kimberly,
Words cannot express how deeply sorry our family is at the loss of your beloved son. Nick was a regular around our household. Living so close to Goffstown High School, 48 Tyler Dr. became the place to gather after school at the end of our cul de sac. Nick was always polite and respectful and I even had him trained to take his shoes off when he came in! The smile is what I will remember and his soft spoken and sweet ways. He was a good friend to our...

There really are no words that anybody can say to take away the pain you feel in your hearts. I am deeply saddened to hear about Nick's passing away. I did not know him personally, but from what I do know- he was an amazing person with a huge heart. I am very sorry for your loss and your family will be in my prayers. RIP Nick.

Don,
We umpired many games together; and I learned a lot about the game of baseball from you. But your dedication to the kids is what impressed me the most. We are all a bit richer because of the sacrifices you and your family made for all of us. I thank you for that and wish you and your family the best in this most difficult time.

Dear Lynda and Don,

I was very saddened to hear of Nicholas' passing. I never knew him, but I'm sure he was a wonderful young man--and he had played ball and done those wonderful Goffstown activities. You have my deepest sympathy and please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
(I used to run into you after WW meetings in Hooksett and I had subbed at Mountainview in the early '00's).

With deepest sympathy,

I learned of Nicholas' passing through a friend in your community who suggested I make contact you. Although I didn't know your son, I know something about the pain and loss you are experiencing. My 21 year old daughter died this past Father's Day. I wanted to let you know that you are not alone and that one of the best things a friend did for me was to connect me with Compassionate Friends. http://www.compassionatefriends.org/
Besides their online support, they have local chapters...

Don, Lynda, Erika and Kim,

It is with the most heavy of hearts and deepest of sorrow, that we learned of Nick's passing. Our blessings and prayers go out to all of you. Although nothing that we can say or do can bring Nick back to us, he will always remain in our hearts and memories.

We came to know the Hamel's through, what else, baseball as a member of the "Green Team"; Nick as a player and Don as a coach. Despite his quiet demeanor Nick was an incredibly respectful...

i met you because you worked at subway and i was always going there for food. every time i went in and saw you i'd get the biggest smile on my face. you'd always be so friendly and i thought you were the cutest boy alive. but i was always way to shy to every talk to you a lot. then we had a run in at the shell station, and from then on we started talking. we were saying how the next time we ran into eachother we were going to stop being so shy because both of us were... but, we...
