Not sure what to say?

Nick was a great influence on my life path. I used to live a few blocks from Dreamscape (no accident there) and I used to feel at home in that space, and I used to enjoy talking with Nick and Jeanne. A favorite memory of mine was Nick chiding me about buying a whole bunch of "New 52" first issues, "you sure are jumping into this relaunch with reckless abandon." I told him that I hope it's an investment, and more importantly I hope they are GOOD. Most were not. Nick was very wise to the comics...

Always remembered, always missed.

Nick was working at Patty's back at IUP when we first met. He was one of the most accepting and positive individuals that I have ever met and a pleasure to talk to...a very cerebral talker. I have to say that he is one guy that I count among a select few people that really influenced me in a very profound way...and I will miss him...I wish I could have seen him once more before his passing...RIP Nick...I would like to dedicate a submission that I made as a group project a few years ago...in...

Nick was kind, smart and playful. He was that way when I met him while running at IUP back in 1982...and hadn't changed at all when I met him again at Dreamscape last year about thirty years later. After we caught up a bit, he was kind enough to invite me to join Jeanne and few of his friends after work for dinner. It was a nice meal with great fellowship...and Nick's laughter. Got a hilarious email from him back in July. I was looking forward to reconnecting more with him. He was good person...

Jeanne,

Myself and my family were so disheartened and shocked to hear about Nick. We all are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. You both were always so kind and it was always a joy talking to the both of you when we would stop in the shop to pick up our comics. Nick will be truly missed

Jeanne,
Justin and I are saddened to hear of Nick's passing and for your loss. I have many good memories with the both of you. He will be greatly missed.

As a Bethlehem local living on the westside, when Dreamscape first opened it's doors I was a Friday regular. My pay was small in those days none the less I left about 80% of my earnings with Nick. I miss those days, rest
peace Nick.

This is such sad news. What a kind person! Every time I read my copy of "Little Nemo", "American Splendor", or "The Complete Crumb", I will think of him.

Sorry to hear of Nick's passing.
