Very cool guy. It was a pleasure both meeting you and spending time with you. Sorry you had to endure my two daughters torturing you at all the cookouts! That's what happens though when you have a great personality and good looks. I was looking forward to another pig roast with you. Rest in peace my friend and keep looking over mom and dad. Help them to get thru this tough time.

Nick, I only met you a few times in your dad's house, witnessing a very doting and loving father, who was trying to read your every wish.
I cannot imagine what your parents are going through right now, but with the strength of your circle of family and friends, we are all here to see them through.
