Nicholas joined our family in 2012 when he was around 3 years old.  We met him at the Pilot School field day when his foster mother brought him.  It was love at first sight for our whole family.  He grew up with us over the last 12 years and brought us so much joy and laughter.  We still tell stories of all his funny antics.  We will miss his loving and gentle spirit, his loud howls, and his endless sniffing.  Nicholas— we will never forget you.  Rest easy, sweet boy.
