Nick loved life’s simple pleasures. He especially enjoyed going to the movies, with a particular fondness for science fiction films. Dining out was another favorite pastime, and Black Bear Diner held a special place as his favorite spot. Those who knew him will remember his enjoyment of good food and good conversation.
For the past four years, Nick was in a loving relationship with his partner, Ida Silveira.
