I still think if Nicholas do often! He was such an amazing young man! Years after I taught him, I would run into him and he always had a smile and a great hug! Bless You Nick!

As it has been said here so many times, Nick was a caring, loving and gentle soul. I will find comfort in remembering the way his face lit up when he smiled. He had a way of bringing happiness and joy to everyone around him. One of my fondest memories was hearing him sing "My heart will go on" when he was just a little boy. It was amazing! I remember begging him to sing it again many times over the years. Our love for Nick will go on just as he will continue to live in our hearts. God Bless

Hi everyone,

My name is jozsi and i am from amsterdam, and am currently on a gap year. I had the pleasure of meeting nick when i went to go train at tiger muay thai in thailand, and i can honestly say he was my best friend during my stay there. I remember my parent's asking if i had made any friends for life while i was in thailand, and nick was the first person to come to mind. Such a joyful character, his presence always made me happier, and i find out only today that he has passed. Not knowing how to react, I thought back on the fun times we had together, and broke down into tears. It honestly pisses me off that someone like nick, with so much potential and positivity, has had his life cut short at such a young age. I had already spoken to him about seeing him again in Europe when he would go travelling again. Now I guess I'll have to wait to see him on the other side. My condolences to the parents and the sister, Nick was a great dude, and it pains me I won't be seeing him again.

To Natalie and the rest of the Bronco family, I am so sorry for your loss. I think I may have been Nick's first friend when he moved to Baltimore. I remember Nick and Natalie coming into the MAC to check it out, and just loving the both of them. Nick worked hard at what he loved and he loved working out and martial arts, and shooting hoops with Natalie! He is an amazing spirit. I am so sad to hear this news. He was a good friend, and helped me get through a really challenging time in my life. He wanted to be a personal trainer, or at least started studying for it. I don't know what to say, other than - I adored Nick and I am so sorry. Natalie, if there is anything you need - if you are still here in Baltimore - please please call me. 443-262-5107. I'm here to help in anyway - okay? Sending you all lots of love and healing energy. Much love. Melisa Deane

I just heard of Nick's passing last evening. I am truly saddened by the news. My acquaintance with him is through Mr. Glick in Baltimore, as we had a chance to work together. He was very polite, a hard worker, attentive and a good man to have help us. Truly, may the Good GOD have mercy on his Soul, and give him Rest. My condolences to all of you, his family. I would have been proud to have him as a 'son'. May your tears of sorrow wash your souls of pain, as we feel he was taken way too soon. In loving memory of Nick. Sincerely, Mike
