I didn't know him or any of you but I wanted to send my love and prayers for your heartache. I understand the pain you are going through. 

Nick was my favorite person. He and my little brother (Brandon ) were best friends. I worked with nick for about a year and he made everyday better. I too, struggle with mental health and he ALWAYS made sure I was okay and put a smile on my face. Nothing will be the same without his sarcastic, loving and caring self. He was very very loved 

Bev & Scott, Paula & Doug & family, we are truly sorry to hear of your loss. Please accept our condolences and may our prayers help comfort you.

Ron & Lu Ann (Kennedy) Best

After looking and listening for song after song from the 70s for Nick. (Little back story he shared with me many times. We both loved all sorts of music, but his favorite was 70s rock. He told me he got that from his dad. His dad always played it, therefore he liked it and lived it). I finally found one that is fitting even though Clapton didnt write or record it in the 70s. May god bless everyone that ever came into contact with Nick. A.k.a. Hipster

RIP Nick S. You will be greatly missed by everyone!

I am pretty sure Nick had a key to our house at some point. He was always over,  and I would usually see him in passing on my way to or home from work. Most of the time I greeted him with a Hi Nick, to which he would reply Hi Nick. He was always helpful and respectful, more so than our own kids most of the time. He reminded me alot of myself at that age. I even gave him my black trenchcoat, I have had since high school. He will be missed very deeply. He ment alot to my family, and he will not be forgotten.

one of my favorite memories of nick was one day while we were sitting in class, i said something to him about an old phone i wanted to get rid of. he offered me $10 for it so i gave it to him, and he just gave me a suspicious look & a smirk but wouldn’t tell me what he was going to do with it. the next day in class, he gives me a look, pulls out the $10 phone and starts playing an old mario game on it, and somehow rigged the whole phone to be set up like an old nintendo game. he wouldnt tell me how he did it but i just laughed so hard. he had such an intelligent & creative mind 

We had a conversation once. About believing. We were walking around Metamora and the topic came up in a particular shop about beliefs. About God/no God, science/foolery, spirits, energy, afterlife or not. (You usually gave me that one eyebrow look knowing I was a bit out there & always making you kids answer questions when y’all just wanted to hang out & not think. You were a pro at rolling your eyes.) This day, I made a comment to you about how even science and religions agree on one thing; That energy cannot be destroyed. That it doesn’t just disappear forever. That life is eternal in one way or another and we don’t get to see that picture until it’s time. That there IS an after. Our energy goes on. I told you how I felt it was far more work to not believe in anything at all then it was to accept there is just far more to this life we don’t see. That to fight that unknown is exhausting and accepting there is more we don’t understand is just plain easier. I’ve thought about this conversation a lot the past couple days. How you replied with, “yeah, makes sense”. About how you were open and sweet and honest and adorably awkward. About how your heart longed for comfort but didn’t quite know it’s place in the big world. About how I desperately hope you didn’t take it as an invitation. How you didn’t roll your eyes. How you raised that eyebrow but kept your mind open. About how we sat and ate ice cream and pet horses and walked and talked. Later that evening you sent me a picture of the pumpkins you kids carved together. Nick, you were so loved. You are so loved still. I know you see the big picture now. The big beautiful unbelievably mind-blowing awesome picture of what that after is like. I know your energy has transformed and your spirit is at peace. That we will carry some of that energy on with us forever deep in our hearts, remembering what you meant to us. I know you finally see your soul just as beautiful as we all saw it while you were still here. Rest In Peace

I can’t say that I have a favorite memory with Nick but I do have infinite good ones. We shared many jokes and laughs throughout high school as we got closer. We aggravated teachers and worked hard with them too. He had an awesome smile that I’ll remember forever. Rest easy buddy, I’ll miss you.

I've been thinking for quite some time on what my favorite memory with Nick is. I simply cannot pick one. They all keep replaying through my head; not wanting to forget even one of them... But I do know that I will never forget his thoughtfulness, kindness, and sense of humor. I will never forget how he some reason always had mechanical pencils in his pocket. I'd randomly ask him for a pencil because I found it hilarious that he always had them on him. I will never forget how one time he brought chocolate milk over with him for me because he heard me say it was one of my pregnancy cravings. I will never forget all the times he bought a 12 pack of tacos from Taco Bell to feed all of "the boys." Or how he'd go half and half on ordering pizza with me for everyone... I'll never forget how genuine of a person he was. I won't ever forget Nick.

There are so many to remember, he was a brother to me. If I could ask for one more thing, it'd be one last late night drive with him. We did this often, we'd just listen to music and drive drive drive.....I loved him so much. And he will always be in my heart. A friend I truly had so much in common with, an absolutely beautiful soul.

I have many stories about Nick, he’s taught me so many things in life. It’s so hard to know that he won’t be around anymore. All of my friends would come to his house, and we would play video games or just mess around. When I just turned 16, Nick and I decided to hang out since he first got his license. We went to Dairy Queen and we drove all around Greensburg. It was a simple yet such a strong memory that keeps playing out in my head. He will always be a great friend and a wonderful man. I will miss him dearly

We send our heartfelt condolences for the passing of your Nick.  May his beautiful soul be blessed forever.  The world is emptier when one of our beautiful, kind young ones leaves us.

My favorite memories with Nick were usually involved with playing Smash Bros with him and devik, it usually ended in Nick beating us both but it was still always fun. Another is the day The Embodies played at his grad party, I had a lot of fun that day just chilling with the fellas and listening to music. 

Paul, Betty, and family please accept my deepest condolences at the loss of Nick.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May God comfort you at this difficult time.

May Nick's spirit soar...!

Scott and Bev,
So sorry for your loss. May God give you peace and comfort during this time. Lean on your faith and Jesus. Trusting him is what encouraged us when we lost our son many years ago.  Faith will pull you through as it did us. May God bless you and your family.

Nick was one of the most Caring people you’d ever meet. He made school worth going. We had French class(and many others)  together and he would make fun of me for not knowing a bit of what was going on 😂 he was such an amazing person. One of my closest friends for a long time. Rest easy Nick. 😔 Praying for his family and other classmates/ friends. 

Nick tried to act all scary and tough sometimes  but I knew better .I would tell him I knew he wasn’t mean and he would smile .
When he stayed at our house he was always so polite to me . When no one else noticed I needed help he would carry something up the stairs for me or or open a door for me.
When I would be feeling down he always had something nice to say to make me feel better .
On Mother’s Day he came to our house holding a potted hydrangea with beautiful flowers , handed it to me and said ,” Happy Mother’s Day.” I gave him a big hug .
He was sweet like that .
He was like family to us.
I miss him already . 

A favorite memory of mine is when Bev brought Nick into the office several years ago & I talked Nick into hiding behind the door while Bev checked the mail & to scare her when she came back in.  He did it & then replied immediately Johnna told me to do it.  He was such a great guy & I know he will be missed immensely by all that loved him.  Bev & Scott are the best people I ever known & are wonderful parents.  Just know that I am thinking of you & praying for peace & unconditional support during this difficult time.  

Love
Johnna
