Different Blog

We felt it would be better if we left Nic's blog as intact as we could so we'll be doing any future postings about Nic on a blog our sister, Izzy made, http://izzy-dreams.blogspot.com/

  2. I wish Nic all the best on his next great journey. I grew up with him, and while I didn't know him very well, he was always there - solid and serene in his own way. I have a vague memory of him playing as a child with a cape and a crown - it might have been a play, or just a game - but he was slaying dragons and saving maidens and villages, and being a true knight. I'll always remember him like that.
    I truely admire how Nic explored whatever lessons he could from adversity and chose to grow despite all things - I only hope to face my own challenges with such good grace.

    When I found out he had passed on, I decided to remember him in my own odd way. I sat down, and ate a peach in his honour - to remember all the richness of life in it's simple pleasures, and to remind myself to live in the moment more, and most importantly - to grow.

    Love, to Nic and his family - Everyone who's life he touched will continue to draw strength from his memory and from his strength of character when we face our own obstacles in life.

  3. My husband and I just came from the funeral. It was such a lovely service - so fitting for Nic. He would have loved it I am sure! We saw that he has touched many people through his illness and how he has dealt with it. This will ripple out to many and make a difference in the world. I think he would like that. I personally would love to have a chance to read some of the speeches again if that is possible. It was so hard to hear with the doors open and the fans going. I am sure many people who could not attend would love that also.
    It was an honour to know him.

  7. We have never met but your words have kept me grounded through my battle with leukemia at PMH. For that I thank you Nic.

    Rest in Peace my brother.

  8. I have only just heard of Nic's passing, and of the remarkable record he created with this blog.

    It was a pleasure to know Nicolas when he was a student at TWS. He was a wonderful student and a lovely person.

  9. I never knew Nic, but just read his blog as I am an alumni of TWS. I am so sorry for your loss. I loved reading his blog and was able to feel so much emotion through his writings. I am sure he is in a much better place. And, I am sure he is with his mother. G-D Bless you.
