Mr. Nick was a very kind and helpful co-worker, he always offered to help me with my work. Mr. Nick was always there to give me advice. He would bring the best apple fritters to the office for us. I have known Mr. Nick for less than a year but I will miss him forever. I give my best regards to the Szanyi family. May the Creator protect you and preserve you during this trial.

I have known Nick for many many years, I have lots of memories and we shared lots of hog hunting stories together. Our family sends our condolences to the Szanyi Family.

God Bless you all
Donnie Copeland & Family

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Szanyi family. May God give each of you strength to get threw the days ahead.

Dear Janice and Family,
Earlow and the "Costine Family" goes way back with Nick. In 1968, they both went to bootcamp at the same time and then on to Viet Nam. After returning home, Nick started at the USDA and Earlow went to work for the Livestock Market and had a few cows. We all went through the "Bangs Disease" days. Nick was one of the best blood sample collectors the govt. ever hired. We will always remember his smiling face and ornary jobbing banter in the cow pens and around the markets. He was so much fun to be around. He has passed at a young age, but we think God has a bigger use for him in Heaven. He will be missed.You and your family are in our prayers to the good Lord; Asking Him to comfort you as only He can.
The Earlow Costine Family

May God Bless and keep you and your family. Nick was one of a kind and will be remembered and missed by all who knew him. It was a honor and privilege to know and work with Nick and I will remember the time our paths crossed proudly.

Tom & Debbie McBroom
