Belated condolences. I miss touching base with Nick. He was a true comrade in the practice of law and a fellow traveller of living a better life. I had hoped things would work out so we would do a trial together. His Bronx DA experience and my Cravath training would have made an awesome team.

I remember Nick vividly from when he was a student here at NVD. Funny, smart, and warm as could be. Praying for all gathered by this huge loss.

So many memories of Nick holding court for one of his great stories or that great joke that hits at the right time. That laugh that was contagious. Will miss you Nick. Rest In Peace.

Nick might have been my first friend. I was lucky to have spent decades in friendship with him. He was the most gregarious person I´ve ever met, and I was in awe of his sincere attraction - he had countless family members, loved ones, and friends (long-lasting and new) swirling and mixing around him. I´m thankful I had a place in his world. So many things will make me think of you, Nick.
