To us Nick was the "Freight Train"! Stong and able to take on anything. We are devestated to hear of him loosing his battle with lukemia. He fought so hard, first for his country and then for his life. Nick was such a loving and caring guy. We will miss him and keep him in our memories. Our thoughts and prayers for strength and comfort are with his family and loved ones. Good-bye Nick.
