Aunt Gloria and Family, please find the comfort in knowing how much we loved him. My family enjoyed his "stories and jokes". We never could tell when he was serious. And we all "learned to train Tiger to jump thru that hoop", one of our favorite stories. And remember to raise your hand when you are in a group talking. Uncle Nick didn't like when everyone talked at one time. He had to hear it all. We will miss you Uncle Nicky
