I first met Nick in 1977, I was a firefighter from the Redbird Purchase Unit and he was the crew boss from the Stearns RD on the Daniel Boone N.F.   We went to the Scarface Fire on the Modoc NF and then to the Hog Fire on the Klamath NF.  We kept in touch after that assignment, and he and I both moved on to other jobs with the Forest Service.  Later I later had the opportunity to work with Allen on the Stearns RD.  Then some years later, Nick and I worked together in the Regional Office in Atlanta in Fire and Aviation, where he was the training specialist for the Region.  Great family, always one of my favorite.  Nick was my friend.

Was a classmate of Nick’s in forestry school at Mississippi State. What fun we had back then! Then, was privileged to work with him on the Daniel Boone NF and in Alabama. Nick was always so upbeat and he had you laughing in no time. Nick - a very good man!

Lots of great years with Nick on the old Southern Red Team.  He always made the long days more fun.  We will all miss him.

I worked with Hurston for a number of years while stationed on the National Forests in Alabama.  He was a good Forester, a good friend, and a good man.  Farewell my friend.  It was an honor to know and work with you.
