Nick was born in South Russia in 1935 where he lost both parents by age seven.

After several years as a teacher in Steinbach he continued his studies, completing his MA in Germany, after which he taught German literature at Moorhead State College. Nick and Diane then moved to Byron, Georgia where he worked at the local university until his death. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, November 18 at 1:00 p.m. at the First Mennonite Church, Notre Dame at Alverstone.
