My deepest sympathies on Nick's untimely passing. I knew him from 2004, when we were both in transition at Lee Hecht Harrison. I found Nick to be a dear friend and had recently reached out to him, as if someone was pointing me to contact him in the month of November. The last time I saw him was over a meal in early 2005 at Persapolis. May he rest in peace.

Dear Sharon and Ben,

Lisa and I were shocked in receiving the news of Nick's passing. Both of you and Nick were great friends and colleagues to us. I will always remember Nick as a great leader and a very caring and loving husband and father. Throughout or times working together, I learned alot from Nick's leadership and his ever-caring style in wanting to bring the best out of everyone. We had constantly been able to keep in touch in the last six years after our OFS time and were priviledged to be invited to brunch at your wonderful home in 2005. How Giap and I still vividly remember the great food and converstion we shared with you all during that great brunch in Atlanta. Sadly, Nick will be forever missed by us, but knowing him as such a wonderful person, we are certain that he is now in a happier place.

Take care and we shall always be in touch.

Sharon, Ben, Miriam and all the Khourys world-wide: What a pleasure it was to have known Nick. Regretably, didn't get to really know him business-wise, which from the looks of all these postings he was a brilliant man. What can we learn from this?? Live today as if it's your last and really take time to connect, I mean really connect, and keep in touch with those that are important to us.....life is too short. We all have to slow down and simplify, huh?? Gotta believe he is in a better place now. Love you guys...Michael and Bryan (Atlanta)
