My nephew nick. Happy Birthday . My heart truly aches and misses you so much. This year you are an Uncle. Even though I can
Not see you hold Sophia I know you and your dad are with her.
You are always missed and forever in my heart and thoughts.
I love you hugggsss

11 years since you were taken so suddenly from us. You are so truly missed . I miss your smile , your voice. The hole in my heart can not be filled till we meet again my nephew. I hope you feel how loved you will always be . I will continue to treasure all the memories i have of you.

Wanting to to wish you a Happy Birthday, but it is no-longer a day of celebration. It is now day of deep sorrow for me since your life had been tragically shortened. I still can't seem to separate the two emotions and my heart continues to remain extremely broken. Missing you more than any words could ever possibly express. Luv you, xo 

My dear Nick, they say that time heals all wounds. My heart has not healed, I don't imagine it ever will. I MISS YOU, more than any words could ever express.  Thank you for being my fun-loving, caring, handsome son.                                                           I was hoping for a sign from you today, perhaps tomorrow. Luv you , xo
 

Remembering , when you said " who the heck are these people! "
We had all laughed so hard that night, everyone had thought you were joking!
Never had I realized the depth of the horror in those words, or should I say that emotion.... until now!
Although, I had come to a conclusion of that statement later that night.
I find, it now, resonates with me on another whole level.

Missing you more than any words could ever express, xo

Happy Birthday Nicky, I miss ya and think of you often and won’t ever stop. Hope your still doing some crazy bike riding up their with the angels buddy. Rest Easy always.

Love ya , Uncle anthony

Nick, another year has passed and not a day goes by that we don't think of you in some way or another.  Your laugh, your smile, the way you talked about things.  You are FOREVER AND ALWAYS MISSED!
With Love Always Aunt Donna

It has now been eight years since your tragic passing, there are absolutely no words to describe how much I miss you. My heart remains so very heavy. They say that time heals all wounds, It hasn't done so for me, I miss you more and more with each passing day. Thinking of you 24/7, you are forever and always in my heart and on my mind, xo

25 yrs. ago today, at exactly 4:01 p.m., I was blessed with a beautiful son. You will live on in my heart forever. Thank you for being my son. Missing you 24/7, forever and always, xo

Nick, You will be forever be in our hearts ALWAYS. Miss you and your smile.
So many great memories.

Nick I miss you so very much , your smile, your sweet voice , your laugh. You are irreplaceable. I use to love coming by your house and see you riding your bike on the ramp, and the way you loved firecrackers. There are so many fond memories my heart tries to not let me remember too much cause then I feel it breaking all over again. I can hear you calling me sometimes Aunt Veronica like you are right here and I smile and my heart aches at the same time. Just know you are always thought of. Thank you for the nice moment today when I released the balloon up to you . I asked you to send it by the water tower by my house and it did and a cloud was lit up like you were opening the sky up to retrieve it. Xo I love you Nick

My heart is so heavy Nick, Missing You 24/7, xo

I miss you tremendously, everyday is a constant struggle, Life was once so beautiful, I had treasured life with you here. Now It feels I'm stuck alone in the depths of Hell. I imagine I'll be seeing you soon, I luv with all my heart and soul, xo

Not a day goes by where i don't think of you. Such a loss, you were a fine young man and a great nephew. You moved many people and brought forth endless smiles. May you be at peace and in the arms of angels. I know you are around watching over your Mom and Sister. If i could have just one wish, i would wish to have you back home. It feels like just yesterday that you were taken from our lives....I love you, R.I.P. Nick

Nick, Although you are so badly missed!! I know you are with us everyday in some special way. Forever in our hearts, you left us something special. Love

I miss these kids its such a shame they had to leave us so soon, I have been grateful for knowing nick growing up with him and sharing the same hobbies as him, all we used to just bike the hell around, work on dirtbikes all day long like pros lol BUTwhen I heard about what happen 3 years ago, all i could do was to pray it wasnt true but it was and there was nothing anyone can do, all I could do now is rememeber all the crazy times we had and keep them alive by talking about how it all used to be, my lil nickahhh god bless you nick and a.j. I never knew a.j as well as nick but I met him twice and each time I saw him it seemed like I knew him for the longest time, that goes to show how nice these kids were cant find any other people like them u just cant, bless the familys of nick and a.j, thats the worst thing they could go through

A lot of my memories of Nick are when he was young. He was such a cutie. I remember going to the store one time with Nick and Aunt Dori and he kept asking if he could get "em eh ems" (M&Ms). I thought that was so adorable it still sticks in my mind.

I remember hanging out with Nick a lot of days in the summer when we were little and Aunt Dori would babysit Sara and me. Sometimes Olivia and Sara would go and play together and I would play with Nick. We would just stay in his room watching Top Gun, and it really amazed me how he knew so many of the lines in the movie. One day I remember we found one of those little electronic baby chickens that we would get in our Easter baskets. It had those 2 buttons on the bottom when you hold your fingers to it, the chick would make a "peep peep" sound. I guess this battery on this chick had died so Nick and I made a song. "Chicky don't quack no more chicky don't quack no more.  Little baby chicky chicky, chicky don't quack no more." Nick laughed and laughed and we kept singing the song. 

Not a holiday goes by that I don't look at the cocktail weinies and think about Nick. Nick loved those lol

We will always keep Nick in our hearts and hope he is happy where he is<3. Love you and miss you Nicky.

Nick, three years ago we lost you and our family has forever changed. We hold your memory and your much loved spirit dear to us each day. I remember your spirit that sparkled from your eyes when you would show the world a small smile.

I remember how we used to play together as children. You loved your remote-controlled cars, Nick at Nite, fireworks, GTA video games -- but what I remember most is how you were so generous with your toys and games. You always wanted to share what you had with those around you. "Only the good pass young." Nick, you will be forever missed. Rest in peace, my dear.

The last time I physically saw both Nick and Aj was at McDonald's in Fairfield off of 46, I was on my way home from practice after school and was in line for the drive-through when Nick approached my mom's car to say hey and to ask me if I was still working at Bani's pizzeria. I replied with a no and told him the dude running the place was a weirdo, Nick agreed with me since we had both worked at Bani's at the same time and knew what the people running the place were all about. We shared a few more words when Aj rode by the car for a quick hello goodbye before the two of them went back to join the large group of friends crowded in the parking lot. After the incident, it didn't take long for me to look back and remember the last time I had seen the two of them together at the same time - that day at McDonald's was the second to last friday of september, the memory I have of that day is ultimately vivid due to the sole fact of it being the last day I saw the boys in physical presence together, not at separate times.... Nick was the only one who had approached my mom's car to say hello in the first place and I guess Aj felt he needed to do the same! Gentlemen.

Nick showed me my first spot to go offroading/mudding when I first thought that it sounded like fun. Now I'm huge into it and I tell people that if it wasn't for him, I probably would not have gotten into the hobby that I love doing. RIP man. <3

The best memory i have that sums up nick has to be the night i meet up with him at a west essex football game. we never planned on meeting it was just a coincidence that we were both there. I walked while he had his bike and when the game was over instead of saying goodbye and going home he got off his bike and walked with me the whole way and thought nothing of it. Something that ment nothing to him ment a lot to me....but that's just the kind of kid he was. always putting others before himself . That's the nick i know and the nick ill remember .

missing YOU something awful Nickie...i will never forget our hiking trips playing with newts and bugs and attempting to fish lol.. also how you loved rides in my convertible car. The best of all is me trying to show YOUUUU of all talented bike riders how I can do a double jump , only to end up splat in the mud, i will never forget your face when i failed lol ...miss you , love you sooo much my sweet nephew!!

You left me with all these memories from 9 years ago when we used to ride on the other side of fairfield playin manhunt, to that one time in study class when we drew that penis on that cutout figure in the cafeteria n got caught haha to the tome we took our GEDs together. U visit in my dreams sometimes but its only for a moment i miss u n love u nicknasty till the day we meet again.

Nick i cant believe its been two years i still feel like its not real and i miss seein you flyin around town on ur bike everyday. It seems a little less lively and more empty not seein you all the time bro you were filled with such an energy and it was contagious you'd spread that feeling to everyone you were with. I know you're definitely in a much better place than us but i still miss u

I did not know Nick personally, but grew up with his mom and aunts and uncles. We will always be family, and will always hold nick close to our hearts. May the good lord bless him and his family, forever. Love you Nick

To know Nick truly was to love him. I really wish I could throw life in reverse and completely redo all the years I spent not knowing him and not spending time in his company. Nick was an amazing young man and his presence was a blessing. Rest in Peace, Nicky. Chris and I visited you today and I just know that the butterfly that fluttered by was you sending your love. Forever in my heart.

Most of the memories I have of Nicky were from when he was younger. I loved rocking him in my arms until he fell asleep on my shoulder. As he got older, I loved listening to him talk about everything that he enjoyed, especially dirt bikes, in his adorable voice. He was so passionate about riding his dirt bike. When I was able to drive, I loved coming over to spend time with Olivia and Nicky. Nich

I remember Nicky when he was 4 years old... Riding his bike around Ruths backyard in Paterson... He would always try and be so tough... And act so cool... [Which he was of course]... But as soon as he would fall and hurt his knee... Or get upset because Olivia didn't want to play or something... He would burst into tears with his big eyes and be so adorable... Ill always remember that. <3

Nicky , May you RIP . I didnt know you well . But I have heard so many wonderful things about you . May God hold you close to him. We miss you and love you .

R.I.P. Nicky , forever in my heart and my prayers.

Nick I really miss you, it all seems SO unfair! Not a day goes by where I do not think of you.Your laugh,smile and the great person you were,Such a shining star! I have many memories but the best one was when we went to jump dirt hills at the park and i landed flat in the muddy water at the 3rd jump. I would give anything to see you laugh that hard again <3

Nick was truly a blessing to our family. What I had adored most about Nick as child, was his persistence and determination in everything he did. As he grew older Nick loved to be out with his friends, riding bikes, acquiring and perfecting a few of the BMX skills. He had grown into a kind, compassionate, fun-loving young man. In short to know Nick, is to love Nick! He is very truly missed.
