Dear Amy,

I learned of nicholas' death today from a former coworker at glenmount. I regret that I could not attend the memorial service as I was out of town at the time. I cannot begin to imagine the grief you must be feeling. Nicholas was a dear sweet boy, a hard worker, a wonderful big brother, a real joy. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
