Dear Nic,

We will all miss you! Your smile inspired us to be better. I had a privilege to be your friend back in Westhill playing "bump" basketball, to the fun days in Canyon Park Jr High P.E. classes... kicking butt and asking names later. Even the mornings as we waited at the Bus Stop with Beth were days of enjoyment. And to the great days of Bothell High classes and Senior Year. I am very sad that we did not keep in contact after the big year of 2001. I am happy to see your life at SPU and on to active duty. You served our country with pride and I want to Thank You! Prayer and Love to your family. See you in heaven old friend.
