Nick and I worked together at TAMU and he was such a sweet person. I was very young when I met him and he took me under his wing and helped me with lots of things here at TAMU. He will never be forgotten. Prayers to his family.

God always picks his best and prettiest flowers first. The rest of us are just as important to him. He just has other plans for us. Nick was so much fun to be around and his knowledge of The Masonic Order is still inspirational to me. So Mote It Be Brother Nick.
