Nicola Pignati

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Sono passati 3 anni, e il tempo che vola via non può farci dimenticare l'unione e le radici indissolubili che ci legano al nostro caro Nicola Pignati anche ora che riposa in luoghi ancor più lontani. La sua scia di benevolenza riecheggia e torna ciclicamente come una cometa.

Dear Nic,

You are missed and will always be a hero to me...My journey through my life was made better because of your influence on me and my family. I still remember when you told me you would retire at the age of 55 and I was touched by your confidence and drive to know just what you wanted to do with your life. I miss you and send love towards your family...The lord has you now and I know you are in a better place. Until we meet again my friend, you will be missed dearly...

Nic was the consummate gentleman. You couldnt be around him without feeling good. Nic was always impeccably dressed and had a charming personality.
And It was obvious to those around him how much he loved his family.

When we were in Viareggio for the day, we were so taken with Nic and Pola and their fluent Italian. Of course, they are both Italian but it was so much fun watching how easy they conversed with the locals. Thank you for the wonderful memory and being such...

Cara Paola e famiglia, in questo momento di dolore siamo a te vicini. Mia madre Maria Pignati (San Benedetto del Tronto) mi ha incaricato di cercare il modo di contattarvi e sono riuscito a cercare vostre notizie. Quando Nicola emigrò dall'Italia io avevo solo 1 anno. Siamo tutti dispiaciuti perché la morte porta con sè sempre i migliori. La fede però ci aiuta giorno per giorno ed è in questo che dobbiamo credere.
Riposa in pace caro Nicola e la luce perpetua risplenda per sempre sulla...

Nic & I worked together at IBM. As Engineering Manager, he supported my group. Thanks mostly to NIc, this relationship grew to become an easy partnership. As my predecessor, he would offer guidance and always did his best to be sure we got the support we needed as a group.

Later parts of our careers found us in competing companies, but the relationship never changed. Nic remained much as I would imagine his family remembers him; good natured, direct in conversation but a trusted warm...

Dear Pola and family,

The passing of Nic was very difficult for all of you. He was a wonderful husband, a great father and good friend. He will be missed. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Love,
Vanda
