We are so sorry to learn of Nick's passing! Our favorite memories of Nick are from Boy Scouts, of course. We always enjoyed his sense of humor despite uncomfortable conditions rain camping or hiking with heavy packs in the heat of the day. He was a favorite of mine and for Dan, Andrew and Boyd. May you find comfort in memories of him too and from the many pictures of Nick that you
have! Best wishes, Fred Getz and family

Dear Mike and Marcia,
We were all devastated to hear the news earlier today of Nick's passing. Nick and John were the best of friends during our time in Chicago and they still kept in touch. Nick's infectious sense of humor was a delight, yet he was always polite and respectful. A real credit to you both. We remember him fondly as a delightful house guest when he came to San Diego to visit John.
We extend our sincere sympathies to you both, to Mike Jr and Chris and their families, and, of course, to Molly and the two boys. God bless.
