    Nick, the passing of one of the “good guys”! He always had a smile and kind word for you. Nick was also one of our favorite Democrats. We enjoyed the banter and debate over state and national politics. You will be missed!

    Nick will be missed as a great friend, neighbor, and adopted grandpa by our family. He was indeed a caring, kind and fun loving guy. Marion and family, our hearts ache with yours in his passing. We loved him, too! Our prayers of peace and comfort are with you.
