MessageDear Deb & Family - I am the Ride Across California Volunteer Coordinator, Nick and Nicholas road the RAC in the 2009 - 2010 season. Nick was one of those fathers and riders that although he was riding with Nicholas was constantly asking what else he could do to help, how he could help and always lending a hand. Throughout the ride, my memory is crystal clear of his never ending smile and his absolute enjoyment of riding and being with his son. From our extended RAC family, Nick will always be in our hearts, thoughts and prayers as will your family. It is our desire that when your daughter is in the 5th grade she will join us to enjoy her fathers passion of cycling. With all of our love - the RAC Family. Gary

MessageUnfortunately I never had the pieasure of meeting Nick. Nick's father is my cousin. One summer they all came to my house in Cherry Hill, NJ for a barbecue, except Nick, he must have been at school. His parents spoke very lovely about him. There is one thing I must say is that Nick looked so much like his grandfather, my uncle Nick. I cannot stop thinking about this TRAGEDY.
Nick, rest in peace.

MessageDeb -

Bridget and I are so saddened to hear of your loss. Nick was a roommate of mine in college, and was such a dear friend to both Bridget and me during our time at USD. As a matter of fact, Nick made his "famous, top-secret" spaghetti for us whenever we could cajole him into in; his recipe is still in my recipe book to this day.

We completely adored your husband; he was a man of integrity, drive, compassion, and clear priorities. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful children, Deb.
-John

MessageI received the message about Nick's passing from the Stagecoach Facebook posting. I did not know Nick but feel a kinship through our common passion for cycling. Very sorry to hear about this.

MessageNick was always a pleasant guy. I worked with Nick at E&Y and although our interlude in life was rather brief and I hadn't seen Nick in 15 years, I remembered him instantly when asked. My prayers go up for Nick's family. My you rest in peace Nick.

MessageNick and I met at the edge of the soccer field, when for one season our sons played in the same team. Mutually delighted to have found a partner we could talk cycling with, we had an instant click. I advised him about riding in the French Alps, wishing I could join him there. I actually rode with him just once. He impressed me. As it turns out, he was in between jobs and in that situation took his sport more seriously than ever. I never quite understood why he refused to join the Ranchos, but never lost hope either that some day we would ride together more frequently. He will be dearly missed - on the road, in the boastful chatter that goes with it, and everywhere else. To judge by the photos, he was a better cycling dad than I am. I never made it all the way to the desert on bikes with Mendel. Our thoughts and feelings (Mendel’s too) are with the family.
