My darling boy, I still miss you every day. Small wounds are healed by time; but time can only bandage great wounds, which continue to bleed in secret.
You are with me in my inner life and memories, but oh, how I long to see your face and put my arms around you.
I love you.

As always, this is the saddest day of my life. I love you so very much and I still miss you every day. There will never be another like you and my world is diminished by your loss. That being said, Andrew is my little bundle of happiness and Amy and I see so much of you in him. So a part of you lives on in a new generation. Andrew could have no better angel than you. Love always and forever.

Nicky, I am thinking of you , your Sweet Mom and Amy as your 11th anniversary date of November 18 approaches. You are much loved and remembered.
April 23, 2014
Happy birthday, Beebs. What a gloriously happy day it was for me 28 years ago. I take care of your nephew, Andrew Nicholas, 5 days a week and he is a mighty mite, just like you. He is way ahead of the curve in his development, like you and Amy. Andrew has some of your traits - he gets very frustrated that he can't just stand up and run at age 4 1/2 months and he thinks everything is funny and so far, he is fearless. The Nicholas part of Andrew's name is for you. His hebrew name is Ari Shimon, and the Shimon is for you also. And so, you live on through your name as you live on in my heart and my mind and most of all, my soul. I love you and I miss you every day and I am so sorry for Andrew that you are not here to teach him about history and nature. We will try to take up the slack and we will tell him about you and I will give him all your dinosaurs and Robin Hood. Your brother Will has stepped in and is doing a great job. He can't wait until Andrew is ready for fireworks so he can teach him the techniques of "The Master". You are well loved my son.

Today is your 27th birthday and I only wish I could wrap you in my arms and tell you I love you just the way I did on the day you were born. Happy birthday my fabulous Beebs. In your honor and memory, it's sushi dinner tonight with your brothers and Ryan and Amy. We're going to share funny stories about you, like the night you guys blew up the luminarias and we will laugh. I love you forever.

When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
William Shakespeare
You are the brightest star in my universe. I sorely miss your smile, your laugh, your wit, your world view, your face, your hugs, your voice; in essence, everything that made you the extraordinary, wondrous Beebs. I love you with all my soul and all my being, through all eternity.
Missing Someone is your heart's way of saying you love them.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love.**** Walt Whitman
It's getting chilly here, just like it was when you were born. They brought you to my room in the hospital and I stood at the window with you in my arms. I had to wipe the fog off the window - the room was warm and the outside was cold. I held you and kissed you and talked to you and we looked at the lights in the buildings leading down to the river and I fell in love. My son, my son, I love you so.
Mom
April 23, 2012
Happy Birthday, Beebs. You are still the light of my soul and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you. Just want you to know that I have been laughing a lot this year. The silly season is upon us with the presidential primaries and congressional elections and I hear you whisper your pithy comments in my ear and I see you making mocking stump speeches when I close my eyes. You were the funniest boy ever. With your smile and your smarts, this would have been a great year for you to start that career in politics that you talked about. You'll always be my hero. I love you.

Today is November 18, 2009, the 6th anniversary of your death. You are so loved, missed and remembered every day, by your Mom, Amy and others who love you. Death ended your life here on earth, but love is stronger than death, and you are connected by love to those still here on earth. Your Mom had a beautiful memorial stone dedicated in your sacred memory in the Jewish Section of the Old Cemetry. She has a special place in her heart just for you, and she loves you with every breath she takes.

April 23, 2008
I thought that the night you died was the worst of my life.
But that night, I was able to hold you and kiss you.
I have wished every day and night since then to be able to do the same, but can only dream of it now.
Some nights my dreams are so real, I awaken expecting to find you home with me.
Dreams and memories can make me sad and wistful for the future times we will never have together,
but they can also bring back the happiest times,
like the day that brought us together as two separate beings, Mother and Son, twenty-two years ago.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
APRIL 23, 1986.

Rest in peace, Nicky. And you don't need to caretake those left here; those who love you hold you in their hearts, where you live and love and laugh. They keep you with them in spirit at all times, through all the joy and pain and pleasure of life that you would have experienced. You just rest, and know that you are dearly loved and will never be forgotten.

Nicky, This Sunday, May 13, 2007 will be Mother's Day. It is a very bitter-sweet day for your Mom. Sweet because she is Mom to you and Amy. Sweet because Amy is alive on earth. Bitter, because you are not here physically and and oh how your Mom just wants to hold you, see you, talk to you, smell you. You know, Nicky, all the Mom stuff Mom's love to do. Please send some special love to your Mom on Mother's Day to help her through the day.

Happy Belated Birthday Nicky. I've been thinking of you. If you can please visit your Mom and Amy in their dreams or give them a "sign".

I watched a lifetime movie today, and it brought back soo many different emotions. I am sorry, Susan, that I haven't seen you in so long; I rarely come back to Jacksonville, but that is no excuse. I miss our talks. I hope you are doing well and I always keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Some days, I just feel like writing to you, but when I finally get my pen and paper, I never know what to say...I hope Nick's rugged smile is shining down on you today and Nicktopia is guiding your path always and forever :)

Dear Susan and Amy,
Today is November 18, and I am thinking of both of you and Nicky. Instead of writng to you my heart tells me to write a letter to Nicky. I hope you do not mind.
Love,
Jo Ann
Dear Nicky,
My name is Jo Ann Webb. Although I did not have to blessing of knowing you on earth, I feel like I know you through all the stories that your mom tells me about you. Your love of history, your civil war reenactments, your years at Bishop Kenny, your love of "critters", your sensitivity and caring spirit, your enjoyment of firecrackers, your inquisitive, brillant mind, your kindness to your family, friends, and fellow man. I have seen your pictures from newborn to the absolutely stunningly handsome young man you were before you died. Nicky, your mom was and still is so very proud of you and loves you with all her heart and soul.
I met your mom in January 2004 at Compassionate friends. It was both of our very first time attending CF. My daughter was killed by a drunk driver on December 10, 2003, just a few weeks after you also left this world. Well Nicky, both your mom and I were in raw, fresh, stabbing grief. We looked into each other's eyes through all the pain and recogized a kindred spirit in each other. Today marks three years since you died, Nicky, and I want to let you know that your mom is a SURVIVOR. She thinks about you every day and misses you, but she continues on going to keep your legacy alive and to do good works for other people in your memory. Nicky, she still goes to CF, and she helps greet the newly bereaved parents, and she tells them that they will survive the death of their child. She tells them that the pain will change over time and that they will be able to create a "new normal" for themselves and their loved ones. She shares stories about you and tells how much she loves you and Amy.
Your mom has been a lifeline for me. I know that I can call her or go see her absolutely anytime, and she will drop whatever she is doing and be there completely for me. She listens to me with her heart and soul. Just knowing she is there on many days gives me the strength to make it through another moment, another day. And Nicky, your mom has had two really nice dinner parties at her home. As you know, she is a fantastic cook, and she makes all her guests feel very welcomed, appreciated and valued. Your mom and I meet for dinner together at least once a month and we talk heart to heart, soul to soul and share our inner most, deeest feelings. Nicky, I am so blessed to have your mom in my life. We have declared ourselves SISTERS, and we are truly close spiritual sisters. Your mom is the sister I never had, and I treasure her beyond words. When I had to go through a three day trial, your mom was there for me every day. Nicky, she actually sat behind me and at times gently rubbed the back of my head and hair to let me know she was there supporting me. On the evening news, the camera caught pictures of your mom's hands on my head. Looking back, it was kind of funny looking on T.V. Nicky, you would have laughted if you saw it and proudly said, "That's MY mom!"
Nicky, I had the blessing of meeting Amy and Ryan. You can really be proud of them! Amy has graduated and is working as a Physician's Assistant in a doctor's office. Ryan has graduated and has a great job in a library and is going to continue his education to become a lawyer. They have bought a beautiful condo and are living in Jacksonville.
Well sweet Nicky, I feeel like I know you through your mom. Always remember that your mom and Amy love you very much and that you are in their hearts and always remembered.
Love,
Jo Ann
Mom

I watch the heavens at night because this is the message you gave me:
At night you'll look up at the stars. It's too small, where I live for me to show you where my star is. My star will be one of the stars, for you. You'll like looking at all of them. They'll all be your friends.
People have stars, but they aren't the same. When you look up at the sky at night, since I'll be living on one of them, since I'll be laughing on one of them, for you it will be as if all the stars are laughing. And when you're consoled, you'll be glad you've known me. You'll always be my friend. You'll feel like laughing with me. And it will be as if I had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.
I will always be your friend. I will always be Mom. I will always love you. Sometimes I look at the stars and I laugh, thinking that you have "Nicktopia" at last. Sometimes I look at the stars and cry because I can't reach them and hold you in my arms. But when the stars laugh, I hear your laughter above all, and I smile. I miss you so. I love you, Beebs.

I stumbled upon this site today. I'm amazed I didn't know it was here, and reading all the comments that people have left you has brought back a sadness that I had put away a long time ago. It's been almost three years and I still think about you every day. Staring at your empty desk every day was the worst feeling I've ever had, I think it made us all a new kind of sick... it just wasn't the same without you there. And I'll always miss you and wonder why... that's just how it goes I guess. But I tried to make it worth something and I tried to help others like you and I never forgot. I hope you were watching - I know you know what I mean. Sorry for all those times I kicked you in the butt in the hallway, but it was still funny, you know you laughed and gave me that glare, as if you would ever come after me. I'll come visit you when I come home for Christmas. Gone but not forgotten, you are always in my heart... To the family - I'm sorry you've had cause to be so brave, but Nick was amazing, he always made me smile and made my 4 years at Kenny some of the best ever. I will never forget him. He is never forgotten, remember that. Stay strong and have faith...

Today is the 4th of July,2006 your Xmas, Thanksgiving and New Years all combined, and it missed you,.. again
The creek was low this weekend and Dusty and I walked for miles, he swam like a champ in the deep areas and did you proud. Bucky and he played on the sand bar, they were a riot. He still looks for you every nite as I walk him. So do I.

I don't know you, but you sound wonderful. I am sorry your life was cut so short. To your Mom, I cannot imagine the hurt your feeling, I have 5 beautiful children ...my oldest just turning 13. We've had problems, but I could not imagine a day without him. My thoughts are with you because I've had a few family members and friends die suddenly inthe recent years. I know the pain of that, I cannot imagine it with my children....I had to register my email when I signed up, if you want to talk ...lets talk. I know I could use it too ....
take care ... your so brave.

I wasn't close with Nick, but I know what a difference he made in other's lives. Although some time has passed, I know that the emotions and Nick's memories have not. Please know that I think about him everyday, wishing that all those close to him weren't hurting. Just always trust that he is there, giving you comfort. Angels have a funny way of doing that...

Mr. and Mrs. Dennis, I was riding my bike to San Jose CC over spring break and I rode by your house, and memories of Nick just came flooding back. He would always come to practice with Chaz and Will and just watch them in the pool, and one time we watched a movie about spiders and Chaz was so scared, but I remember so distinctly Nick saying, "Chaz, be a man!" It was really cute-he was such a big brother to them. He is always in my prayers, especially at this time of Easter. Please know that he is not forgotten.

I love you very much, and you are always in my thoughts and prayers. You live on through the memories we all share of your charming, funny, and sarcastic personality. The Lord sent us an angel; I am just glad that I was honored to know you and be in your presence.

Your unveiling was today. It was so sad I still cannot recover, why is all I ask, Nick, why. The Rabbi blessed the headstone and grave. I only hope you are at peace. Amy flew home with Ryan, Pam and Michael were here. Ola came up and Jordan came in from FSU. Andre' came by and Kelly Marshall. Will, Chas, Dusty and other friends who dearly miss you as I do. The hole in my heart gets bigger each day.

Sophomore year-
Nick and I had Mr. Wood's religion class. On Wednesdays, Laura and I would leave early and walk around the 100 building. Nick would come with us every now and then. One time two rows of students left the class with us. Yeah...we got caught. Everyone received centrals.
Jason, Shamie, and Nick started Freestyle Fridays in the class. It actually began on a Wedenesday, but they moved it to Friday for the longer mod and alliteration effect. The boys would create a theme at the beginning of the week and then rap on Fridays. Karen and I were the judges. We were usually partial to Jason, but tried to remain fair. Nick always had the most creative lyrics.

To the family of Nick...
Our daughter is Senior at Bishop Kenny and knew Nick fairly well. I just want you to know, that she prays for Nick daily and will forever remember him. It's been difficult for her and she misses Nick, but is able to share wonderful memories of him during school. As parents, our thoughts and prayers are with you always, as Nick's passing truly impacted our family.
Our daughter and our family promises...that we will always remember Nick and all of you in our prayers.
Much love & much sympathy,
A Bishop Kenny Family

Nick,Susan&Amy,
Having children ourselves we can only imagine the magnitude of your loss. You have been a part of my life for 11 years now and I cannot tell you how thankful I am for everything you have done for me. Mine and Heathers hearts are still heavy. I havent told you but it was a personal loss for me as well because we have known you for so long. I truly hope that you all can find solitude and peace through all this. Nicky was a wonderful person and you will always have 17 years of memories to think of and that will never go away. We wish you only happiness and peace.
