I always enjoyed Nick's energy, and positive attitude when He was in The Grove City Band. I always thought a lot of Nick. He entertained the entire band with his rendition of "the moon walk". Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Crossen family at this time.

Nick was the first person to show up on our front porch when we moved in 20 years ago. We watched him grow up and it breaks our hearts to learn of his passing. We are so sorry that this happened...Russ and David

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Nick for a brief time while at Giant Eagle on Hayden Run. He was so much fun to be around. I remember him being in the coma and we were so excited to see him walk back through our doors. He was a pleasure to be around and will be sorely missed. May God be with his family at this difficult time. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Pat, Lori, Nicole, Zach and Tyler.
