My brother Nic will be greatly missed. To share just one memory from his life... Nic's "15 minutes of fame" came when he "oriented" President Ronald Reagan to his giant press at the Reynold's South Plant when the then President was making a publicity stop. Our father, Henry, promoter of Downtown Richmond and 1913 Model "T" Ford Parade regular, who was usually the one in the spotlight, could not have been more proud of his son Nic.

I am saddened to hear of the passing of Nic. I worked with him at reynolds south plant in the early 80s and enjoyed the positive conversation he always engaged in.
My prayers are with his family and God Bless.

I was sad to hear of Nic's passing. We shared many memories at Reynolds Metals. I shall remember his warmth and good humor.
