Nick was an amazing and Loving person. My Mother worked for All New Stamping for 15 Years and she always said it wasn't just a job it was her 2nd family. Nick was such a sweet person. He always thought of my boys and would send us to Dodger games. We May have lost Nick here on earth but we have gained an angel by our side.

My condolences to The Kopinga Family.
