My big brother, Nick. I still can't seem to find the words to express how much I miss you and I don't think I ever will be able to. I will always appreciate everything you did for me. Our times spent together will always be kept close in my heart. My memories of you will never fade but only grow stronger as I think about you every day. I hope wherever you are you are enjoying yourself and I can't wait for the day that we can be together again. You will forever live within my heart and I will try my best to always make you happy.
-Love your brother,

Nicholas, this is Tracey Canedy / Wilson. I woke up this morning in disbelief that you're gone. I never thought in my wildest dreams you would be gone. I keep reliving our childhood together. Our families' camping trips to sleeping out on the trampoline together. I love you and miss you deeply. I wanted you to walk through your parent's house yesterday. I will keep your memories in my heart forever my friend. You were an amazing child and friend growing up and you didn't change as you got older. I remember when you and your brothers met the power rangers and the pink power ranger gave you a kiss on your cheek. When your dad told us the story your face turned red. I'll never forget you.

Sarah Bender

Dear Bibi, Larry & Family, Our heart and prayers go out to you all at this most difficult time. Life does not make sense and losing someone as young and loving as Nicholas is tragic. God help you guys get through this. Love you all, The Bender Family

I have a lot of good memories of my times spent with Nick but one that stands out is the day he saved myself, Bradley and Matthew from 2 rabid dogs that attacked us in a local dirt field. The kids were taking turns riding our quad mini as I sat in a lawn chair with a broken femur. We were suddenly attacked by these two vicious dogs. Nick ran to our rescue by running the quad straight at the dogs. As Bradley and Matthew ran to the house and I wobbled on my crutches I looked back and saw the dogs chasing after Nick at full stride as they disappeared from sight around the small mountain. 5 minutes later Nick rolled into the driveway with a big smile on his face. He was the HERO of the day. Godspeed Nick!
