Nick was a devoted parishioner of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church; he taught CCD for 25 years; he was involved in the Men of Manresa, and he sang in the church choir. He said the choir was so important in his life, the “words to the musical prayers kept him going, and he thinks the Lord must feel his love for singing His praise.”

He served his country in the United States Army and retired from Shell Oil after 38 years.

He will be remembered as loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He will be greatly missed by all who were blessed to know him.
