Wow. This is a shocker.

 

RIP, Nick.

 

Apparently, he dies at the park- probably the way he would want to go.

What a shame. I met him at ST a few years ago. He was very approachable. There I was,an absolute NOBODY in his world, and he to took almost a half hour to talk about the Sox with me. And BTW, I was in way over my head in that conversation and he took the time to talk with me anyway. Nick was a class guy and will be missed.

He seemed like a very nice guy.
