Dear Nick, while I feel sorrow and sadness, I can't help but think of all the lives in Westchester County and beyond that you touched and uplifted with your tireless philanthropy work over the years. Driving home, I saw some first graders spilling exuberantly a from school bus in a poor section of North White Plains, and thought: I bet at least one of them carries a backpack that they got through Nick's eloquence for the cause, and I bet at least one carries a little bundle from the food bank, also thanks to Nick's efforts. God bless! Your smile and sincere heartfelt concern for the less privileged will be sorely missed.
