Nick
You were my first best friend in life when I was 7 and moved to the house two doors down on Clinton. I don't remember a day we didn't hang out or call each other on the phone. From riding our bikes, to playing Nintendo, or basketball we never had a dull moment. I especially enjoyed spending the night then Saturday morning your dad would take us to singer island get us some candy and a big Mountain Dew. Those times as a kid I will never forget. I know it has been quite some time since your passing but those memories feel like yesterday. You and your family will always be special to me. I love you man maybe we can ride our bikes in heaven and get in one more game of contra for old time sake.

Nick, its me Elisha. It has taken me 11 years to find this. I remember when I brought you home to Tennessee for Thanksgiving and you saw snow for the first time. You were so excited you called your mom. I just wanted to say, you were my best friend and I love and miss you so much. Rest Easy my friend - Elisha Hope Bennett

Nick,
It's me Mirelys. It has taken me a year to sign this. I still just wait to hear from you one day and I really haven't accepted your gone. You were one my my best friends. You were there to talk to, laugh with, and always make me smile and you could always cheer me up. You know how much you meant and still mean to me. After all, you were my first real boyfriend. My memories of us will never go away. I will keep you in my heart and thoughts forever. I love you so much and will miss you. My heart still goes out to Cin and Betty and the rest of your family and their grieving. I know your watching from above and we will meet again one day. Until then I will be thinking of you and missing you. With love,
Your Sister

Nick--it's me Cin
Well baby it's been almost a year that your gone and not a day goes by that I do not think of you. My phone rings at the house and I always wonder if it's going to be you on the other end, but then reality sets in and that's not the case. i miss you soo much so much has gone on in the past year that I've wanted to tell you but I have a feeling in my heart you know and your watching over me. Don't worry about mom & dad I've been taking care of them. I love you little brother and until we meet again I'll be thinking of you :) Love your big sis....Cin

Nicholas my love,If only we had more time. You were my first love. And even more importantly my best friend. Over the years I watch you mature into such a handsome man. The times we've shared together are priceless. The memories are all so fresh. I will think of you often as I have for the last eight years of my life. I will be strong because you would want me to be. The pain will never go away and the reality of it all brings tears to eyes, but I know you're alright. And I'll see you again some day. I thank you for the many things you taught me, and how no matter how upset I was you could bring a smile to my face. Everytime I hung up the phone with you I was happy, and up to that last time you still told me you loved me. I love you too baby and I always will. You will always have the whole left side of my heart. Sleep now precious your home and I'll see you when I get there... Betty you're a wonderful woman and I love you dearly. I hope you can find the strength to heal your broken heart. Cindy I hope you too can over come you sorrow although I know it will be hard. I love you both and my heart goes out to you. And for everyone else in the family as well. Time heals everything it just takes a lot... Until we meet again, bless you all..Amber

Until then may you rest in peace.

Nick, you have left an important imprint in everyones heart you have touched.

Dearest Nick,
It is so hard to believe that you are not with us any longer. It feels unreal. I never thought we would see this moment so soon.
I cannot even begin to describe the love that we all have for you. You may not have been our blood, but you were most definitely family. You had a way of making us smile even in the most difficult of circumstances. If you were around, we were laughing. And if we were crying, you gave us a shoulder to cry on. Some were closer to you than others, but no matter what role you played in anyone’s life, you touched everyone you came into contact with. You are the type of person that no one forgets. You are like no other, and no one could ever replace you.
Nick, know that you are loved and will never be forgotten. We will see your brilliant smile again someday, and once again, you will make us laugh. But for now, I know that you will be watching over us and we will have the most vibrant and charismatic Angel there ever was. Until then, may we all go on with the same passion and love for life that you had.
Love Always and Forever,
Jenn

To the family of Nick:
We can't begin to express how deeply sorry we are for the loss of such a "special" and wonderful young man! Of all of our memories from Holy Name through JIL High, Nick stood out with his vivacious smile and fabulous personality. I know that Candace, Crystal, the Seiberling Family and myself will always remember him and always keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
God-Speed Nick!

Dearest Nick,
I am so sad about this I don't want to believe it. We are all going to miss you so much! Your laugh, your smile, your carisma, and all of the other wonderful qualities you have. You had such an amazing ora around you. They say some people have "it" and you were one of the ones that had "IT" babe. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you did for my cousin, Ashley, and how you treated her like your sister no matter what happened, and how you were the one she could call and tell anything to and would never judge her and for always being there when she needed you. You were and always will be one of the brightest stars in her life as well as mine and I know many others. RIP baby boy and know that you were a special part of so many lives and your memory will live on in every life you touched. Love and miss you....until we meet again....xoxoxoxo
To Nick's family: My deepest condolences to you and know that he is at peace and in a better place. God will take care of him and now we all have our own special guardian angel. You are in my prayers and thank you for giving us the wonderful gift of your son for he will live on in all of our hearts forever!!
Just because I no longer
stand in front of your eyes
doesn't mean you can't see me.
Close them,
I am there.
Just because I no longer
answer when you call my name
doesn't mean you can't hear me.
Speak softly, listen carefully,
there is my voice.
Just because I can no longer
touch your hands
doesn't mean you can't feel me.
Hold on to another,
my arms are there.
Just because I am no longer there
to show you I love you
doesn't mean my love is gone.
Place your hand on your heart,
feel its beat.
I am there.
Know that I am with God.
Know that God is with you.
And in that we are still with each other.

My sincere condolences to my brother, Charles Santomartino, my niece, Cindy Santomartino, and Nicholas' mother, Betty Santomartino. I've known Nicky since he was born. He was a very outgoing person and always treated his family with respect. He will be missed dearly by his family and friends. We love him deeply with all of our hearts. May God take his hand and guide him through the walkway of heaven.
