I'm so sad to hear of Nick's passing. I remember his terrific smile and making the brass section crack up. Sometimes, even the beloved albeit humorless Mr. Yagello couldn't help himself and he would laugh. We are so lucky to have musicians like Nick who bring joy to our lives through music, so it is a double loss when they are gone. Rest easy and laugh, Nick.
