An avid Yankee and Giants fan, he was a regular attendee at Yankee and Met Life Stadiums with friends and family alike. In the winter, Nick could be found snowboarding in Utah or Vermont and in the Summer, golfing at Navesink Country Club or boating on Lake George and in Long Beach Island. A devoted friend, brother and cousin; those who knew Nick knew of his generous personality, his bright outlook on life and his desire to help each person he met. Nick always had time for others; always giving. His most cherished times were spent with his family and friends.”
