Nick was our neighbor, and friend to our family. He had a great family, including his beautiful daughter, Deanna. Nick was important in the history of the twin city area of Leominster and Fitchburg. He built, and sold, so many properties, and enabled growth in our area. He was the hardest of workers. Today, MarySandra and I will say the Rosary for Nick, Dea, Deanna, and Dr. Nick, and the whole family. May Our Lady, Notre Dame, keep them all safe in her loving care until we see them again in the Resurrected Christ. On behalf of the entire Deane C. Foster Family of Leominster, all our love and prayers for Nick and his great family! Steve and MarySandra Foster, Friendswood, Texas

Nick is not forgotten by anyone in the Deane C. Foster Family. He was a great entrepreneur, responsible for so much of the development of Leominster and Fitchburg. He also had a great family- his beautiful daughter, Deanna, lived next door to us, a kind and wonderful person. Today, MarySandra and I will say the Rosary for Nick, and all his family. All our love and prayers, Steve & MarySandra Foster, Friendswood, Texas

Nick's contribution to the development of the Leominster-Fitchburg area is inestimable. He is still fondly remembered today.

On behalf of the entire Deane C. Foster Family, we want all who love Nick to know that our love and prayers are with them. God's peace and blessings, Steve & MarySandra Foster, Friendswood, Texas

We're sorry to hear of Nick's passing, and offer our prayers to his family. Nick was an important figure in the history of Leominster, and did much for the town. He was blessed with a wonderful family, too. Deanna, his beautiful daughter, lived next door to us. We plan to say the Rosary here for Nick, and want his family and friends to know our prayers are with them. There's a beautiful Biblical passage that says it best:"...and on that day, we shall see You, our God, as You really are. You will wipe away every tear from our eyes, and there will be no more death, nor pain, nor suffering for the old order will have passed away...". May God bless and comfort those who mourn Nick's passing, and may the Blessed Mother bring Nick safely home to his heavenly home. Steve and MarySandra Foster, Friendswood, Texas
