Nick began his career with the rail yard, followed by 31 years of service as a City of Winnipeg Bus Driver where he retired in 1997. He prided himself in growing the best apples from his back yard. In his spare time you could always find him at Garden City Shopping Centre enjoying coffee, and talking to his friends. Most recently you would find him every Saturday night at General Sir Sam Steele Legion playing cribbage, and enjoying the weekly gourmet meals. His greatest joy in his life was his grandchildren. Nick always made himself available to spend time whether it was singing, trying to play video games, picking them up from school, or taking them on secret trips to Salisbury House.
