My heart goes out to you and your family at this difficult time. May your memories give you peace and comfort. Nick was always there for us during our difficult times. Pap looked forward to his visit and I got to hear all the funny conversations when I would stop in to see dad. I am certain the two of them are together celebrating in some fashion. A great man has gone home to Rest In Peace. Nick you will most definitely be missed but our memories will last a lifetime. Lots of love to the Rose Family during this time. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything.
Very Respectfully,
Sue,Kayla, Emily and Charles
