Raleigh

Nicholas passed away in Raleigh, NC, on July 4, 2018, at the age of 34. He was the loving father of two sons, Dominic Francis (6) and Angelo Francis (4). He was a devoted father whose family was the most important thing. Nicholas was an extremely loving son and lived passionately as a devoted friend to many people. His passing will leave a deep void that will never be filled.

He is missed deeply and will be loved forever.

I knew Nick from my son Justin, who always spoke well of him and had a deep connection with him for a lot of years.
Each and every time I was lucky enough to see Nick he was always smiling and so sweet he always had a hug for me. He showed such love and kindness toward his two boys.
I'm so very sorry for your lose.
