Nick attended schools in Aurora and graduated from Lutheran High School in 2000. He participated in football, wrestling and ice hockey throughout his school years. Nick worked as a dental technician in the implant department. Nick fought a courageous battle with melanoma for 7 years. His amazing strength and attitude inspired those he knew and many he did not. His dedication to his faith in Jesus will resonate in the hearts of those still here. Nick was a sweet, funny, creative, courageous, positive, inspiring, warrior for God.
