Nicholas Peter Radford

I met Nick at ESF where we bonded over our love of botany. I was lucky enough to get to spend a few weeks at Cranberry Lake with him and other wonderful friends. Those memories and friendships I will always cherish

One of my fondest memories of Nick is dancing with him and friends at the Westcott Theater in Syracuse, NY. I saw my first Rubblebucket concert with him and it was the best! Since then I´ve been to at least 4 more of their shows and it always reminds me of that sweet sweet time in college surrounded by such a good group of friends.
Nick was a great dancer. He had such good rhythm, charisma, and confidence. It was contagious. You couldn´t help but join with a smile.
It´s hard to believe he is gone. My heart breaks for his family.
The time I spent with him in College will forever be in my heart.

I will never forget you Nick. Meeting you and taking care of you was one of the biggest blessings for me. You taught me more than you´ll ever know, and the kindness you and your family shown me each and every day while we navigated your challenges is something I will carry with me forever. You were the kindest soul, with the biggest hearts and most contagious smile, and you always had the best nail art :) The world will not be the same without you in it, but it will also never be the same because you were in it.

I had the pleasure of working with Nick for several years at Tom Wahl´s and it was such an honor to call him a friend. His kindness and love towards everyone was contagious and he had such a special soul. My heart is with his family and friends.

I first met Nick when he was about 6 years old. I was so impressed with the warmth and friendliness of the little guy. Each time I met him I found him to be warm, friendly and interesting. As I came to know all of the family I understood that that was a trait of all of the Steve and Julie family. The love and loyalty continue to be outstanding! I am so glad I knew Nick and he will remain in my memory and thoughts.

We were lucky enough to meet Nick through Laura + Jimmy Molloy and spent some fun nights together in Skaneatles! Nick was always so friendly, welcoming and easy to talk to. Sending all the love to your family and will take a special walk in nature today to honor him <3

Love,
Jenna + Alex Chartier

I am holding you in my heart.

Thinking of you guys during this time. Sending lots of love & hugs your way.

May Nick be running through the greenest of green forests with a skulk of foxes (yes, I googled the proper name for a group of foxes). I have and forever will hold the memories I shared with Nick close to my heart-- from hanging out with our friends and watching movies on the weekends to us stressing about him making it home before 9PM because he had just gotten his driver's license. It's difficult to articulate my feelings because none of this seems real. Nick's life was a life lost way too soon. His kindness, positivity, creativity, and relentlessness are just some of the qualities that I admire about him. His legacy will continue to impact the lives of others on a daily basis through memories, stories, and photos. Sweet Nick, you have touched the lives of so many people and we all love you so so much.

We did not know Nick that well, but the few times we were in his company we could feel his enthusiasim and the love he had for his family.

Nick was the kindest person I have ever met in my life. He met even those who wronged him with kindness and grace, and I will take that with me the rest of my life. He is and will always be precious to me. I have him to thank for some of the happiest days of my life. I love you Nick.

I worked with you Julie at the UofR. I am so sorry to hear of your beloved son's passing. I'm sure his spirit will be close to you always!!
