I am so sorry, I knew your son and he was a loving smart and creative person. I really am grateful for the time I spent with him. I'm in treatment now and will remember him every day. Of all the people I knew back home, he was by far one of the nicest and most compassionate. I'm so, so sorry for this tragedy. I cared a lot about him and he is a big part of my motivation. Stay strong. I feel for you.

I am speechless, but my thoughts and feelings are overwhelming. We never expect death to come in the middle of a life, only at the end. Although God has taken Nick to be with him, he has given us an angel to watch over us. As parents, know that all of your love and worries have led to peace for Nick. Know that he is safe and free! Your "Family" will always be your strength. My love to all of you.
