Nick was a model dad, even though I dident know Nick for long, by getting to know john and his siblings it became very evident that they had good guidance from there parents, my biggest regret will be that we dident know nick any longer then what we did. But, in the same breath our hearts are at peace knowing that Nick was spared from a long and painfull illness. To john and his sisters and mom, Keep this in mind as you get through the lonelyness of the void thats left in your family now..........."People Live and die,this we cannot change, but as long as Nick is in your hearts and your minds, Then he is very much still alive".

Uncle Nicky, there are no words that will express how much you will be missed. You were my only Uncle that I really did things with or saw a lot from my dad's side. I will cherish the times I spent at your house and when we went camping, and our vacations. I still remember Rhode Island like it was yesterday. You gave so much to everyone and everything you did, now it's time for you to enjoy being at peace. You may be gone but will never be forgotten. Tell my dad I miss him dearly and I love him. Tell my other Uncles, and Babcia(grandma)and Dziadek(grandpa) I love them and miss them too. Auntie Carole, John, Amy and Katie, I am so sorry for your loss. Just know he is in a better place and out of pain. I am here for all of you if you need anything. The four brothers are back together and catching up on old times. I am truely confident they all will watch over us to keep us out of harms way. I love you guys and may God bless your family at this time of sorrow.
