Very nice service...deserving of a well liked and respected young man. Nick was always a pleasure to see and speak with. He brought respect and civility with him to each of the people with whom he had contact. I for one will miss him and the the presence that he brought...as I a sure many others will as well. It was truly a joy to know him. I will see you later.
