I knew Nick ( & Anne) first as a child. They lived in my neighborhood & I started grade one with Ron. Ron & I were classmates & playmates & Colleen was just little, then. I knew Nick to be a kind, generous man & we spoke in later years when we would meet; always a pleasant conversation. My condolences to the family.
