So sad to hear this news. Nick installed my pool and has serviced it for the last 14 years. I learned a great deal from him about maintaining the pool. But most of all I will miss the stories we shared about our families, Nick had a great sense of humor. My sympathies and prayers go out to Joann and family. God bless- Larry Vitelli
