Nicholas enlisted in the Navy and was honorably discharged. He was in the Local 8 Roofers Union, where he was the best and fastest hot tar mopper. He later started his own business with his brother-in law for almost a decade and then moved on to Home Depot as Project Manager until his retirement.

His family takes comfort knowing that Nicholas is reunited with the love of his life, Adrienne.
