NICHOLAS STEVEN KAULS

Hi Nick. Every year since you went to be with Jesus has been special to me to say hello again even though we never met. Well, this year I am in my new house in Fresno. So much has changed in my life in just one year. Today would have been my husband Pete's 75th birthday, but it is 1 1/2 Years since he died. Thank you for letting me talk with you. I continue to pray for your mom. You are an Angel. Please say hi to Pete for me. With love, Lydia Hadley

Remembering your sweet funny and handsome Nick. My real
Memories are at St Anthonys, especially track seasons. Those hot days sitting on the grass by entrance to sunny side high stadium. Youd always be prepared with shade and snacks for Nick. I remember you being focused and Nick would be joking around with buddies as kids do. Then when time to go Nick was ready and ran that relay with all his heart. He could just switch it on and run like the wind!!! He had so much fun with his friends and I just remember his big smile when he came off the track and headed over to you and his track teammates under those umbrellas wearing his gold st Anthonys tshirts. Nick is with us forever!! Love you Lisa

I remember holding Nick during his baptism. He had the biggest, most thoughtful eyes. He kept glancing at his mom and looking around with such wisdom and sweetness. I remember thinking what a beautiful mom and baby. You guys have always been a dynamic team. So rich with love.

Hi Nick! I think of you every single day. Praying you show a sign to mom and grandma that you are ok and heaven is treating you well. They miss you more than words can express. This week especially is hard on them. Continue to be their sweet angel and protect them and keep them safe. I wore my vans today and your shirt. I always have a candle burning next to your picture. Until I see you in heaven, send me sign too! I love you sweet kid! ♥

Every weekend, Nick and his friends would be over at our house with my brother Logan, working on cars. Their proudest purchase was the Volkswagen Golf. I remember hearing the loudest noise coming from the garage one night and walk out to find Nick and others cutting the roof off of the Volkswagen. One night instead of working on the car, Nick thought it would be hilarious to chase my friends and I around with an airsoft gun. It scared us to say the least, while Nick was laughing his butt off. I miss seeing him around our house every weekend. Working on cars isn't the same without Nick outside making the same stupid mistakes as my brother and his friends. Even though we were constantly fighting, because that's how it is with all of my brothers friends, I miss the constant fighting. I think about him and miss him everyday.

The Nick I remember was a car guy thanks to my son Logan and me. And cars guys are the best guys.
So as I remember it, my son asks me if we can bring along his friend from school named Nick to a car show we are going to.
Me : Has he been to a car show before I ask?
My son: Nope first time
Me : Absolutely. Maybe I can make a car guy out of him.?
My son: Remember, I was your first
Me to myself: Then Nick would be my second!
Well, I think he enjoyed it!

I had an AMG that was silly fast. I entered it into a side by side racing event in Bakersfield once and took my son and two car guy friends of his. Well Nick was one of the two. I made several passes that day, ran near a buck thirty and guess who my passenger was? (Guess Nick)
Oh, and on the way home, right by my house, the front left wheel departed my car and well, well that was exciting. Nick was running all over the place looking for my missing wheel when a nice guy in a pick up pulled up and said You guys looking for this? as he gave us my wheel.

Nick would be over at the house hanging with Logan and all of his car guy friends.

Miss seeing him around.

My favorite memory of Nick is from the last time I saw him. We were all at a graduation party and I was heading out and everyone was sitting in my car. I was getting ready to leave and everyone got out of the car except for nick. He stayed behind the back seat and hid and when I started driving away he grabbed my shoulders and screamed and I got so scared it was so funny. We couldnt stop laughing. We all love and miss him very much.

Our favorite memory of Nick and you as well Lisa was when they were at St Anthonys and Riley, Nick and Joe always wanted to go to the skate park to either ride skateboards or their scooter, didnt matter if it was a school night or on the weekends we would always say yes and we would sit there and watch them do their thing. It Was so much fun watching them while you and I chatted, and I remember one time afterwards we took them to Baskin-Robbins and had ice cream and we just watched them laugh and have fun. And we will never forget the numerous sleepovers between your house and ours, Nick always came over with that smile of his. Nick with his smile would always brighten our room! Theres not a day that goes by that we do not think about nick or you! After Nick had passed Riley and actually our whole family was having a really hard time but especially Riley, I bought Riley a St. Rapheal necklace and had it blessed in Nicks memory, and I have to tell you Lisa he has never taken it off since then. Theres not a day that goes by that we do not think about you or Nick. We were there at the hospital when he passed and we will be there with him while he is in heaven. ❤❤❤ With lots of love and prayers, love, Shannon , Riley and Joe McCann

Hi Nicholas,
There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about you. You are always very close to my heart and in my daily prayers. I am pretty sure heaven is treating you well as you drive those exotic cars, play soccer and enjoying some pretty awesome skateboards and skateboarding! I know and believe with all my heart and soul you are your mom grandma's angel. Please keep protecting them and keeping them safe! I will always treasure the day at Boomers when we rode the go carts. I was driving like a scared old granny, you were looking back at me laughing! That beautiful bright smile, made me smile! When I see the cardinals in our backyard I know it's you visiting same when I see all the butterflies! Please send your mom a sign or let her see you in her dreams. Mom misses you so very much it's painful to watch! I pray everyday for mom and grandma. I love you so much! Sending you lots of love! Until meet again. Love, Auntie Lizzy

You're in my prayers
