As Pat's former co-worker at DEC, I want to express my sadness at the pain Nick's family must endure. I remember Pat stopping by the office with the kids and seeing how proud she was, and sharing stories over lunch about our kids. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Our memories of Nick go as far back as Mitchell Elem. School. His friendship with our son Charlie as they grew up so very fast. Spending time with Nick, your family, and so many great kids in our Boy Scout Days. Lots of fun memories. May God give you comfort from family and friends. Nick was a very special young man. You are in our prayers.

My heart goes out to you and your family at such a tragic loss. I only met Nick (or Falco as my son Wayne refers to him) once or twice and he was such a sweet and polite young man. I've heard many stories from Wayne about the fun they all had together and I know he will miss Nick and the others terribly. I will keep you all in my prayers and want you to know if there is anything I or my family can do just ask.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. I did not know Nick but knowing his father makes me certain he was a wonderful young man.

I was a co-worker of Pat Falco's at Digital Equipment Corporation. I saw the accident on the news and when I heard Nick's name...I immediately thought it could possibly be Pat's son...then I read the obituary and put two and two together. I cannot imagine the pain and agony she and her family are feeling. My thoughts and prayers go out to Pat and her family...it's not the natural course of life to bury your child. May God give you the strength and vision required to understand this horrific tragedy.

My heart and prayers go out to you and the families of the other boys who lost their lives in that tragic accident. I know the pain families endure as my son's 3 best friends were also killed last October on Rt. 301 in a horrible car accident. Please know you are in my prayers always and I will keep you in thought every day.
