Nick was predeceased by his parents; brothers, Bill, Peter, Henry, Mike and Steve and sisters, Frances and Kay.

The family wishes to express their heartfelt thanks to Dr. Lindenschmidt and the hospital staff, to the wonderful staff at Red River Place for their excellent care, compassion and support and to two special friends that visited quite often, Eleanor and her brother John. According to his wishes cremation has taken place and a private graveside service will be held on Monday, May 7 at 10:00 a.m. in the East Selkirk Cemetery. Donations may be made in memory of Nick to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, 301 - 352 Donald St., Winnipeg. Remember Nick in your thoughts and memories of his many acts of kindness.
