Hey friends- Nick passed away last night around midnite, at home, holding the hand of our eldest son.
Maybe later I will be able to honor my husband and publicly thank him for
giving me the life, family, home of my dreams.
For his bravery in the face of terror, for shielding us by remaining quiet and courageous.
Nick's wonderful oncology doctor's called today to offer condolences and tell us that Nick was an amazing man and the bravest patient they have encountered- but hey we knew that!
We feel his absence already and we miss him more than words can express.
We said good bye knowing we'll be together one day and that his life was far from an act of futility.
He taught many lessons and he gave and got joy from his friends and family.
Thank you dearest Lord for blessing us with Nick and for sharing him on this temporary journey
Here are the plans for Nick's service:

Nick's passing leaves a huge void in all of our lives, but we take solace in the thought that he no longer is in pain. We've had the privilege of walking this earth with a beautiful soul who gave much and taught more. May those lessons endure in our hearts and actions.
