My wife & I are midshipman sponsors in Annapolis, which means we are a sort of second home for one, and as a result, get visits from many more.
We hosted a 21st birthday party back in March, and Nick spent a night at our house along with about a dozen other midshipmen. That was the only time we met him, but he seemed a warm and fine young man. We enjoyed having him in our home, and in a small but personal way, we share your loss.
Our sincere condolences,
Chris & Laurel Crawford
