Penny and all your family,
I did not know your son and when I met you the other day, I had just found out who he was. I know the pain. There is nothing like losing a child and all the "firsts" that you shall have to endure, but know that time does take most of the pain. Do not fill your days with "What if I had onlys?" The kind of young man he became is obvious from all I have read about him here, and you come from a close family of love and caring. Surround yourself with good memories and know that only a caring mom would have followed up as you did when he did not come home. Sometimes God tests us in ways we do not understand;in ways we wish He did not, but life's like that. Much love and many hugs. If you need to talk Mom to Mom, I'm always available. Love

I only knew Nick by sight at the games, but he showed great leadership to all his team mates, including my grandson Jordan Hanscom. He appeared to be a wonderful young man. You had a son, grandson and nephew to be very proud of. You are all in my thoughts and prayers, God Bless.
