I was and still am sad to hear about Nick Sr.'s death. He was my friend. I admired the work he did with his students and the tenacity it took for him to start and keep the program going. Of all of us who work at the jail, his was most likely the most useful. I will thank him always for being a friend and for asking Nick Jr. and Frank(brother) to assist me with my computer and speaking to my group. I am so shocked because he talked so much about the great time he had in Italy and his up coming marriage in Dec. to Jo. I imagine I will soon believe that he has made the transition. My heart goes out to your family. He was a wonderful person. Remembering him, his work and his smile will keep him live in my thoughts.

To the Palumbo family:
It is with a heavy heart that I write this note. Just believe in your hearts that your father has gone to be with the Lord and that he has gone to a better place. He is once again with your mother and they are together for eternity.
As long as you remember him in your heart he will always be with you.
