Nick was a great guy to work with and to just be around. He was the most detailed guy I have ever known. Many time I need to know something and I would finally tell him, Nick, what is the bottom line I don't need to know everything about this. Beverly, and kids, So sorry for your loss. I know what you had to go through. E.J. Beaver [email protected]

I am so sorry to hear that Nicky is gone. As kids, Nicky, Mike and my older brother, Warren and I spent a lot of time together. They even let this little kid play football with them. I admired all of them so much. Beverly, you and your family will be in my thoughts.

“Some people's lives can truly make a difference however long or short their lives on earth. They give the gifts of kindness and of caring. They sow the seeds of friendship and self-worth. Some people's lives are beautiful examples of putting others first, and when they are gone, the lives of those they touched are so much richer, and the love they shared lives on and on.” Rest in Peace Dad! We will always love and miss you.
