I drove down Cope Hall Lane today, past the lovely old haunted Farm House you used to live in, and immediately thought of you and Myra, and of course the girls. Still miss you both terribly. Love you always. Martin

So many years have passed since we lost you and Myra but the wondeful memories of your wonderful character, sense of humor, work ethic and mostly your love for your family, especially your beautiful "pumpkins" as I believed you called them so many times. I know you are looking down on them and they have made you very proud. Miss you Nige, Love, Terri

There are not many days since Nigel’s and Myra’s untimely deaths, that I don’t think of them, and feel so grateful to have known them.
Nigel gave me two things which I still embrace to this day, the love of music (especially Brass Bands), and the desire to travel and visit far away places. Thank you my dear Freind.

Terri Toland

Nigel was one of the sweetest men and gentleman I have met. We worked together for many, many
years at Executone, starting in Glenside, PA until he and his lovely wife Myra were taken from us. I am
sure they are looking down on all of us, expecially their two beautiful daughters and their families.
He was a ray of sunshine and love.
We miss you !!!!!

Its been a year, hard to believe, we have your picture up in the lunchroom -it was taken in front of your Ecomm truck right behind the office here in Malvern, we also have a picture of your family - we see them everyday and not a day goes by that we don't mention you or miss you.

Martin Taylor

April 2, 2006

Here we are, one year on and although time does heal in some ways, my thoughts and memories of the both of you will never let me forget.

You were my best man, and I yours. You taught me how to smoke. Thanks! You got me to play in the Orchestra and two Brass bands. I still enjoy playing to this day. You got me to travel and to enjoy life. You made me get a motorbike and experience England's wonderful scenery. I still have many photos to comfort me.



Thanks for being a great friend and loyal partner. I am passing my love for you to your beautiful daughters. Lots of love Martin.

Dear Nigel

Our thoughts are on you right now, one year on. Martin, me, Foggy, Tina and Tony went to the Craven Arms last night to remember you and Myra. We had so many laughs about all the tricks the gang got up to back in the 70's, like revving up motor bikes outside the front door to annoy the customers and trashing the furniture. We missed you and Mark so much. Never day goes by without us talking about you or thinking of all the things we all did.

Joe Cox

Nigel, It's been a year already and I still miss your friendship and your voice calling me Ducky every other day. Your still in my prayers

This message has take me a long time to submit. It seemed everytime I tried I would start to cry. I worked with Nigel at Executone way back. I was at first the A.M. receptionist and he would call in disguising his voice, just to make me think he was some one else. He would go on and on and I really would fall for it everytime.What a treasure of a man he was. Always making a joke and us laughing at his antics. I told him about my two girls and he then started talking about his two beauties at home,and showed me the picture on his desk. He was so proud and loved his beauties so much. I have not seen him in a few years, but the sadness is still in my heart. To his beauties, I say your Father was loved by so many.Just hold on to your memories of your parents and the wonderful times you all shared, and with the grace of God, this will help you get through.

We will miss Nigel terribly. He was best Ecomm rep we ever had. It just won't be the same without him.

I just heard the tragic news about Nigel & his wife Myra...I am so deeply saddened...it has been years since I’ve seen Nigel during the good old Executone days but I can clearly recall his kind, smiling face and his wonderful sense of humor. I also remember his customers always raving about how wonderful he was. The world was definitely a better place for having Nigel in it…



My thoughts & prayers go out to his daughters and their entire families…May your wonderful memories of your parents keep the love alive within you…Peace.

I had the pleasure of working with Nigel back at Executone/Claricom/Staples and I just can't believe he's gone. That place was full of fun-loving characters but there was a reason he was called the Governor - he was the top of the heap! I don't think I ever knew anyone who didn't like Nigel from the first time they met. You didn't always know exactly why but you just knew you liked him, you knew he was a good guy. Of course, as you got to know him, you quickly realized what a warm, friendly, funny, caring, witty, devoted, inteligent person he was. He will surely be missed by all he came into contact with. My heart and prayers go out to Sarah and Jen and Nigel & Myra's families.

VIVIENNE DADEN (Nee Smith)

I knew Nigel in the 70's when both he and I lived in Newbury. He was a friend of my brother's and was often round our house tinkering with cars. I bought my first car from him, an old blue MG Midget, which some may remember him owning. We had many mutual friends, and so often came across one another, in our late teens and early twenties.



I had not heard from him for many years, since he moved abroad and I moved away from Newbury. It has only been in the last 3 or 4 years that we have been back in touch via e-mail, initially through my brother who also now lives in the States. It was fun catching up on each other's lives and he had been occasionally sending me jokes which always brought a smile.



I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear of this tragedy, and feel that I have no adequate words of comfort. God Bless you Nigel and my heart goes out to your family.

Sue McLeod

April 7, 2005

Nigel was a dear friend of my brother Mark,who died in November,last year.

His loving,thought-filled phone calls at that time meant a lot to myself and my family.What a dear man you are Nigel and I know how much you are loved by your friends and how much they meant to you.My warmest wishes go your beautiful daughters that you so proudly sent me photos of.I wish you both strength and courage.in your tragic loss.I never met you Myra but I know you were much loved by Nigel.

So,Nigel and Myra I wish you well on this new journey.Peace to you both and all those who love you.

I had the priviledge of working with Nigel for one a day, but It seemed like we had been friends for ever. That was Nigel's special gift. God Bless You Nigel.

Susan Pappas

April 7, 2005

To say that I was shocked and sadden yesterday when I heard the news is an understatement. Nigel had so much energy and life and he willingly shared with everyone. I knew him for just a few short weeks when he did an install for our company but as everyone who reads this knows, Nigel instantly made you his friend. My heart goes out to his "too young" daughters and may God grant you both the strength to bask in the love and memories of your parents and become the strong, intelligient women that your parents wanted you to be. Good-bye "Luv"

To Nigel:

As you know we've worked together for over 20 years. In those 20+ years I've enjoyed your wit, your humor and your attention to detail.

I've learned from you and I am a better man today because of you, and for that I am eternally grateful. I will miss our little "chat sessions" about this or that on the Nextel and your deep barritone voice prompting

"AHH Govenor to Bob.....OVAH"

I have a favorite band that I like quite alot called "The Smith's" they are from England and they recorded a song called "There Is A Light that Never Goes Out". I will think of you and Myra everytime I hear that song...and I'll smile thinking of you both.

Thank you for sharing your life with me. May God bless You and Your Family.

Mindy and Jason Robbins

April 6, 2005

Jason met Nigel a few years ago when he installed a phone system at work. They became friends and I was lucky enough to meet him. We used to live in Elkins Park and he would come over to visit when he dropped his daughter off at Gratz. When we moved back into center city he would visit when he dropped his other daughter off at Settlement Music school. He enjoyed being the kind of dad to shofer them from place to place, he was so proud. His last visit was to pick up the beautiful 25th anniversary gift he bought for Myra. He was so excited, I couldn't wait to hear from him after he presented it to her. It was a pleasure to help him. You could tell how much he loved his family.

Jason will miss chatting on line with him, discussing cars, tools and computers. Nigel would call and ask if we needed any plaster work done, apparently he was very skilled at that! I only met Myra once along with the girls. I wish we had gotten together with them, we all had a lot in common. If I learned anything from this tragedy it is to spend more time with friends and family, they are so precious.

Pat Patterson

April 6, 2005

I had the priviledge of working with Nigel for several years. Many tmes he brought me back to the reality that famly should be first and our careers second. He had morals, scrupples and an outstanding work ethic. I can't remember whether I had met Myra or not, but after today's service I know why and how Nigel felt about family and friends. I apprecicated his input and respected his feelings. We will miss them. They were a bleesing to their earthly family. Rest in peace.

Barbara Scott

April 6, 2005

I met Nigel through Executone. He would come to Saint Joseph's Hospital located at 16th street and

Girard Avenue to repair our console. He always had a joke or two to tell. He would have us laughing so hard, we would be on our knees. But I notice he had a soft and gentle side to his humor. He was always smiling and had a kind word to cheer you up. But what I remember most about Nigel is, he was very fond of his wife and two daughters. He was very family orient, and he was proud of them. My heart go out to the Family, especially his two daughters. May God Bless and keep you in his mercy.

Sandra Taylor

April 6, 2005

I met Nigel when I met my husband Martin, in October 1976. Martin and Nigel were friends at their school, Park House, in Newbury and stayed friends ever since. Nigel was our best man when Martin and I married in March 1977. I remember him making an impolite remark about the lack of church bells at our wedding (as the bellringers had forgotten to turn up) and the priest overheard his remark which included one or two rude words! This was typical of the cheeky Nigel that we all know and love and is one of so many memories that Martin and I have of him over the years. He would call us on each of our wedding anniversaries to congratulate us, so seriously did he take his duty as our best man. We were both so privileged to have known him. I can't express in words how much we will miss him, his humour, his silly jokes, e-mails, sentimentality and that eye for minute detail that he had. What a memory!! Even though he moved to the other side of the Atlantic pond to marry Myra (of whom he was incredibly proud), he somehow managed to keep in touch with all his English friends at the same time and he kept everyone here together. Martin and I are now so grateful that we had the good sense to come to Wyndmoor and visit him and the family last summer. We had a fantastic time with all the Plumridges and will treasure forever the memories of our time there especially with Nigel. Sounds strange but it wasn't till last summer that I realised what a fantastic guy Nigel was, always caring and friends with everyone. Will miss you forever Nigel, thanks for always being there.

Nigel was a kind man and as good a neighbor as anyone could ever hope for. His keen wit made him joy to be with, be it just a few words in passing or over a sandwich and a good beer at the local tavern.



It was no secret that the deepest source of his happy spirit was his love for Myra, Jen, and Sarah. To his daughters, we say: in his love, he has given you great things that will never leave you. May you continue to find them.



Our hearts are with you at this very sad time.



Your neighbors

I, too, was fortunate to have had Nigel in my life, so am not surprised to read through these testaments and know that he touched so many others during his all too short life. The fact that each and every person here has the same things to say about Nigel speaks to the man that he was. I began with Nigel at Executone and on through NextiraOne. I remember his concern for his customers when NextiraOne took over, and the way his heart broke each time he heard of one of his co-workers/friends being let go. This man loved you all so much, and while I haven’t met most of you, I’m sure I’ve been told a story or two about you during one of his many visits. Another thing that really impressed me about Nigel was his confidence in my ability to learn the programming and system changes I needed to know so I wasn't so reliant on my vendor(s) to solve my telecommunications problems. He always enjoyed teaching and sharing his knowledge with me. When I learned of his death, I was so overome with loss that I could not speak, and like many of you, I find tears welling up at the thought of never again being greeted by his big hug and “Hello Ducky!” May God in his infinite wisdom grant peace to the souls of Nigel and Myra, and forever more keep his angels by the sides of Sarah and Jen. I also hope his cell phone works better in heaven then it did here on earth! ;o) I love you Nigel!

Ed Smith

I knew Nigel from Newbury; I spent many hours (days actually) working on his various cars and he would come around and help me with mine. We have kept in touch over the years and I had wanted to make a pilgrimage to PA to visit him.

It's better to go out in a blaze of glory than to fade away.

God's speed Nigel and say, "Hey" to the Pope from me.

Barbara Martindell

April 6, 2005

Nigel was a great man and will be missed greatly. He was always willing to lend a hand and always went the extra mile. I enjoyed his stories and welcomed his visits. He always made your day shine. He loved his family grealty and spoke proudly of his wife and daughters. I did not have the pleasure of knowing his wife, but felt as if i did threw him. I will grealty miss my friend. My thoughts and prayers are with his family in their time of need.

I am very sad to hear the news about Nigel and his wife Myra. Nigel was a great person and one of the most interesting people I knew. Nigel quickly became my friend and mentor while working at Staples Communications and still kept in touch through the years. I will miss him very much.

Lou Stellabotte

April 6, 2005

I still can't beleive I'll never hear hear him answer his phone "I just Lowered my Colesterol" again, I can't think of a world without Nigel. His laughter, his jokes, silly imitations & impersonations. He's made so much of an impression on everyone he's ever came in contact with. Maybe that's why God wanted him with him. My heart goes out to Sarah & Jen-Jen, May God protect both of you always. You'll always be loved "GOV" And as Nigel would say, "Over"



With Sincere Sympathy,



"Louie"

Nigel I am glad I got to know you from you putting our phone system in at Springhouse. It was always a pleasure to see and talk to you. I know how much you loved your family you will surely be missed.

God bless you both and I hope God gives your girls the strength they need.

John Harkins

April 6, 2005

As I write this I also feel tears on my cheeks. I regret that I will not be able to attend Nigel's service today but will be there in spirit with my Executone/Ecomm friends of 25 years.

It was just a couple of weeks ago when Nigel pulled next to me on the road, we both simultaneosly gestured to pull over, and as always, Nigel's first words were "how ya doin Johnny" followed by a manly hug. Quickly 5 minutes turned into 15, and we had to be on our way.

What a picture these comments must paint; to those who did not share in the Executone era, when a work friend can touch a place in your heart that only family can do.

Your old buddy Johnny

First, let me thank Don Foley for being the barrer of this horrible news, I could tell it was not easy. Thank you for the strength.



Nigel was working for Executone when I had the pleasure of meeting him. I was new to the telecom business and very green. Nigel taught me a lot about the telcom world when he would come out to our site at CoreTech Consulting Group. He make me laugh till my sides split and I will never forget his humor.



I never had the pleasure of meeting Myra, but Nigel did speak highly of her.



Take care Nigel, though I haven't seen you in five years, the sadness I feel would be like I just lost my best friend.



Cheers to you, friend.

Don Foley

April 6, 2005

Nigel is a true friend and it was a pleasure to have him in My life.He will always be a part of my life.

Exetone was a unique place to work in that once their you became a part of an extended family, Nigel is one of the people that held our family together! God blessed us with the time we had him here.His memory will bless us into the future.

My prayers are for his family one and All. God bless!

When I received word yesterday that Nigel and his wife Myra had died, I was so deeply saddened. Nigel was one of the techs that worked on several phone systems at the company in which I was employed for 23 years. Nigel was a familiar face and calming voice over a period of many years. I knew when he worked on an install or came out to make an adjustment to our system, we were in for not only a top-notch job but a wonderful story or two from Nigel. He was a gentleman. He adored his family. I remember when his youngest daughter was born. It seems like just yesterday. He was so very proud of his daughters and his wife. They were the center of his universe. And he was just as proud of his family in England. He told us stories of his life there - mostly about his mom.



The world is a better place Nigel because you were here with your gentle, funny spirit. I will miss you.

Nigel was our "Executone Governor" he was our leader. I had the honor of knowing Nigel his smiles, jokes and his stories. Nigel came to visit me at Infocore always great to see him, still the same Nigel laughing and happy go lucky. Nigel will always be the "Governor" to many of us. God took a great person. God Bless to his family

Bill Adams

April 6, 2005

I had the pleasure of meeting Nigel ( THE GOVERNOR ) when I went to Executone in 1981. He was as friendly as a person you ever wanted to meet. It is with great sadness in my heart to have to write this. His daughters and mine are around the same age so we could relate to growing pains and the teen years. I also met Myra at outings and she spoke to my daughter about becoming a teacher and the rewards that it brings. I will miss that accent and some of the funny lines that Nigel could conjure up at any given time or place. Glod Bless you both and I will miss you Dearly.

Allen Solomon

April 5, 2005

I worked with Nigel for many years while with Executone. I never met his wife Myra.I could not believe the news when I heard of their passing. I kept in touch with Nigel even after leaving Executone. Many times I would be on line checking my emails and Nigel would pop up on the instant messanger and we would talk for 20 to 30 minutes. The last time we were together,he was talking about his daughter and the family discussion of which College she would go to. Everyone called him Gov. but I always called him Nigel. I will miss him and I know Myra was a great person even though I never had the fortune to meet her

I met Nigel when his was with NextiraOne. I will miss him and his genuine honesty. I offer the following that I wrote:

FOR A TIME



For a time you leaned on him

And he sheltered you

For a time he supported you

And you grew together

For a time you traveled your separate paths

Intersecting at needed times

For a time he leaned on you

And you sheltered him

For a time you will be apart

And yet never alone

For in time you will

Always be together

I have had the pleasure of knowing Nigel for about 25 years, first meeting him while working at Executone. Nigel was one of the sweetest, most caring, impish, loving, thoughtful people I have known. I remember when his daughters were born and how proud and loving a father he was. I had the privilege of being included in the party celebrating Nigel's 50th Birthday and how warm and loving his family and friends were. Myra and their girls, Sarah and Jen were the center of his universe. He will be sorely missed here on earth, but I guess

Pope John Paul II needed a good technician.

Love, Terri

I write this with tears streaming down My face, I Knew I was going to like Nigel from the very 1st day I met Him, back in 1981 at Executone. I loved Him like a Brother. Nigel would do Anything for Anybody No Matter What, No Questions asked.

Over the years, I've have been invited to Some Very special Times in Nigel and Myra's life. Both of Their Daughter's Confirmations.

We shared some Good times together,





Nigel, I will Miss You

Jeff Williamosn

April 5, 2005

Nigel sent me this last Thursday night after I informed him I was leaving the place where we first met. I think his note exemplifies who he was, it says it all, the courage, compassion and love of this man will be missed.



"Dear Jeff,

Please stay in touch. You have been in my thoughts and prayers since I met you. I left NextiraOne last year after 25 years of continuous service...........I never thought that I would ever do that. I glad that I made the change because I'm much happier (less money and less vacation time.....but I'm happy at work again)

Good luck in your new job.

Gov"

Martina Altomonte

April 5, 2005

Nigel will be so sorely missed by our company, our customers and by his many friend here at Ecomm. If you could put a face on our company, that face would be Nigel's as he was the epitome of professionalisn, kindness, service and support. As a dear friend since my first days at Executone, his death leaves such a void. However, it is comforting just to think of his smiling face, twinkling eyes and mischievious sense of humor. I will always be able to picture him like that.

Ivette Nossbaum Maoz

April 5, 2005

The first time I met Nigel was the also the first time his Myra met him. Myra and I had been tooling around Switzerland and were enroute to visit her sister Betsy, who was studying in London. In France (pre-Chunnel days), Myra and I boarded some vessel to cross the Channel and we were seated in a cabin with two others, Nigel and Mary (his cousin, visiting from Vancouver). Well, we all hit it off and it was a l-o-n-g trip and Nigel- being Nigel- was his charming and most entertaining self. Thanks to him, the trip passed as quickly as it could.He kept encouraging us to get up and walk around to avoid seasickness,a nd then - mischievious guy that he was- would do everything is his power in tease us into barfing. Luckily, he wasn't that good. We exchanged addresses and phone numbers, and he sincerely invited us to come and visit him, but that we couldn't do.However, lo and behold- Myra and I started getting early morning (5a.m.) phone calls from this guy in Newbury, hard at work at the post office, and it was a kick! Even long distance and even listening in a semi-slumbor, he was funny. I remember he talked about his beloved mini, which was leaking or in some other stage(s) of disrepair and, he reported, was now sprouting a crop of mushrooms by the window. Then, he came to visit Philadelphia, which of course was fun. And it was then, somewhere between trips to NY, Larry's confirmation, and other things that the romance between Myra and Nigel sparked. I remember watching them say goodbye at the airport. The way that they looked at each other, it was apparent that love was there. The rest you all know...the trips to Italy to visit Myra while she studied there, the trips to Phila., etc. What I remember about Nigel is his warm and engaging personality. He could talk to ANYONE and be interesting and seem genuinely interested in them. He was so witty, such a gentleman, always a help and so intelligent. Loved his greenhouse, and I liked listening to him explain with pride all about his plants. I didn't see much of him after 1979 when I left Phila. but when I would visit, I noticed that his pet name for his beloved daughters was Angel Pudding. He used to mess around with the piano, too. I remember him putting on a very haughty English accent, and fake monocle, and keeping us in stitches doing some routine.He was very interested in Arizona and was telling me he was eager to visit. I am so sorry he didn't meet my family and me here. The world was a better place for having such a sweet sensitive man here. I was lucky to have met and known him. My heart goes out to the Plumridge and Goldberg families, and for all of us who share this loss.

Jason Giglio

April 5, 2005

While I had only known Nigel a short while, I am very glad that I had the opportunity to meet him and work with him. No matter the circumstances, he always had a smile on his face and a joke to share to make any bad day seem a little bit better.

Annette Carothers

April 5, 2005

Nigel was a very gentle man with a great sense of humor. Even though we didn't see each other often, he always made it seem as though no time had passed. My thoughts and prayers are with his daughters at this most difficult time.

I still can't believe I won't see Nigel again or hear one of his funny stories. He could always make us laugh. I'm told this week would have been his one year anniversary with Ecomm. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to work with him again. I will truly miss him. JJ

I grew up in Wyndmoor on the same street as Nigel and his family. I did not know him well, but the handful of times I met him made it very clear to me that he was a funny, caring, and kind person. I did not know his daughters, but my heart goes out to Jen and Sarah, and my prayers are with them during this very difficult time.

My Heart and Prayers go out to the family of Nigel and Myra. Nigel was truely a GREAT person that I am sure, touched many hearts. I had the pleasure of working with Nigel at Executone. I have never met his wife (Myra)who I am sure was also a wonderful person. We are very sadden by this loss and they will surely be missed by ALL....

My dear friend Myra and I first met her Nigel many,many years ago while we were traveling around Europe and happened to share a compartment on the craft crossing the English channel, Nigel with his cousin Mary from Vancouver.Nigel, of course, kept us very entertained during the very long, and very bumpy crossing. I particularly remember him trying to gross us out with seasickness jokes, to no avail. Thank G-d!!!But, when we landed in England, he made sure to give us his details, took our's and sure enough he kept in touch. Such a prankster! He'd phone us from work at the post office in England (early in the morning our time) and talk for free. He told us about his beloved car- a mini- which was so damp that it grew mushrooms inside! When he came to visit us, he and Myra fell in love. And the rest you know...

I haven't lived in the Philadelphia are since 1979, so I wasn't there to see alot what a wonderful family man he was. I believe it, though. I remember him calling the girls "Angel Pudding", and him taking pride in the art work. He loved his gardening, loved his greenhouse.I liked to hear him play piano, and he was never at a loss for jokes and fun. Always with a twinkle in his eye!!!I liked his imitations, and he would sport a monacle, and speak in some haughty English accent, always cracking me up. Most importantly, he was a mensch- a good person. Caring, tender,hard-working... a doll. Even though I hadn't seen them for a while, I sorely will miss them. There is a great and giant hole in my heart. My heart goes out to the families, the Goldberg side I knew well, having spent much time with them. He and Myra will be so missed.

Nigel was always a joy to talk and work with. We spent a day together during a training session and he kept all attendees and the instructor amused.

He took great pride in doing the best job for 'his' customers and was a great asset for his employer.

His humor and work ethic will be missed.

Nigel was a great man, wonderful father and fabulous friend. He and I would talk at length on the phone whenever I called Myra, going over computers, technology, gardening, phones and lots of jokes. I always looked forward to his e-mails. He was so proud of his family. I will really miss both Myra and Nigel so much.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Even though I never met Nigel face to face, I spoke to him over the phone on a daily basis while working with him at NextiraOne in the dispatch center. He was very funny and a caring individual. Not a day went by that he did not mention his wonderful daughters, Sarah and Jen, and how proud he was of them. He was a wonderful friend and will be missed.



God Bless!

Nigel was a proud man - proud of his wife, his daughters, and his English heritage. He was proud to be an American and had always loved America. He loved his family here in the UK and in America, and was a wonderful and funny person to be with. He and Myra will be sorely missed on both sides of the Altantic
