    Mary and family I am so sorry for your loss. Nick used to make my day at work with his witty comments when there were shipping issues. He used to tell me “when in doubt ship it out”. RIP

    Mary, my special condolences, ,on the passing of your husband Nick, to you who has been such a help over the years. Rick alerted me, but I was unable to fit the calling hours into my calendar. I was there in spirit. Use the memories which Nick left behind for you and your son to console and upon which to build. Nick’s soul is with He who is our Creator.
