In Loving Memory of Nick
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved son, brother, and husband, Nick, who left this world far too soon at the age of 31. He passed away on September 19th, 2023, due to a relentless battle with cancer.
Nicholas, born on July 26th,1992, was the cherished son of Terry and Michelle, and the adored brother of Lexi and Sam (Evan). He was a proud uncle to Calum and Zac, dog dad to Eddie and Toby, a deeply committed partner to his wife Arika and her parents Dennis and Ramona. From the very beginning, Nick brought immense joy and laughter into the lives of his family. Growing up on Little Muskego Lake, he developed a deep appreciation for nature and the simple pleasures it offered. Nick's childhood was filled with countless memories of fishing with his grandpa, boating with friends, and family gatherings by the water's edge.
As he grew older, Nick's dedication and commitment to his family's business became evident. He poured his heart and soul into the company, working tirelessly alongside his loved ones. His unwavering work ethic and determination were an inspiration to all who knew him. Nick's passion for his craft was matched only by his genuine kindness and willingness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.
In the midst of his professional pursuits, Nick found his soulmate in Arika. Together, they built a life filled with love, adventure, and cherished memories. They often spent their time on hikes with their dogs, attending concerts, and spending time up north. Nick's devotion to Arika was unwavering, and their bond was a testament to the power of true love.
Nick has made an overwhelming number of friends through the years in a wide variety of ways. He had an insatiable curiosity for life and a thirst for knowledge that led him to constantly seek new experiences and broaden his horizons. Whether it was building fish tanks, supporting his favorite bands, shooting firearms, parting out cars, or riding jet skis; Arika not only supported his passions, but always made an effort to learn and grow with him.
Nick's infectious smile and warm personality touched the lives of everyone he encountered. He had an uncanny ability to make people feel seen, heard, and loved. His genuine nature and compassionate heart made him a true friend to many, and his absence will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Nick's memory will forever be cherished by his parents, Terry and Michelle, his sisters, Sam and Lexi, his beloved wife Arika, and his numerous friends. He will be remembered as a beacon of light, a source of strength, and a reminder to live life to the fullest. Though his time with us was far too short, Nick's impact on our lives will endure, and he will live forever within us.
A celebration of Nick's life will be held at a future date. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made via Nick's Go Fund Me page to support his medical expenses and Arika during this time.
Rest in peace, Nick. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
