I would like to offer my sincerest condolences to all the members of Nick Manzello's family. I knew Nick when he was always around the Grafton Hill scene during the mid 1940s. In the Summer he played kitty whist with us on Grafton St. Jr. High's Dorchester St. side lawn, while taking on all us Red Sox fans head on telling us how much better his Yankees were. When St. Stephen's High School fielded it's first baseball tean in 1946 under Ernie St. George, Nick was always there to give us words...

Dear Kathy and Ron,
Jim and I are so sorry to hear of the passing of your father. Please accept our deepest condolences and know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.

Nick made Worcester a special place to grow up. Thanks for letting all the Epstein's walk sports street. We are eternally grateful for Nick's loyal friendship. The many memories I have of my dear friend will continually warm me. Warmest sympathy to all the Manzello's especially his son Billy. Now Nick may rest in peace with his sweet Mary. Thank You Nick for your lifetime of loyalty. Nick made me feel as if I never moved to SC, I will miss him dearly.

I will always appreciate and remember the sincere respect Nick gave to me and my Leominster teams when he covered our games-he truly cared about giving the kids and teams he covered an honest and encouraging article. My sincere condolences to the entire Manzello family--he was a very good man.

Dear Manzello Family:

On behalf of the Massachusetts State Boxing Commission allow me to extend ours as well as my personal condolences on Nick's passing. Even while he was sick at home his presence was still felt through all of our weekly meetings and daily activities. Before I became Commissioner, it was Nick that called me to judge my first world championship fight. When I became Commissioner, it was Nick who first called me to congratulate me. I will never forget either...

Our Condolences to the entire Manzello family. Nick was a good friend of the family and was always a pleasure to spend a few minutes with whenever our paths would cross. Grafton Hill has lost a friend and an ambassador..
