Nicholas Vincent Lipari
Nick was an amazing man. Kind, thoughtful, considerate, compassionate, always putting his family and loved ones first. Nick would be the first to help a stranger without hesitation and had shown that in many ways, either on the street or with the gentle and thoughtful care that he provided to the patients he took care of. Nick made a difference in everyone's lives and cherished the time he spent with his family. He showed his love through touch and laughter, joking, goofing off, and took everyone's feelings into consideration.
Nick had many, many hobbies, including paintball, shooting, skateboarding, snowboarding, riding his motorcycle, scuba diving, jet skiing, and traveling the world. Nick loved to work on his Eclipse and had a dream to enter it into Import Face-off. Nick was a collector and exceled in every hobby he took interest in, he was very passionate. He was learning Spanish and aspired to learn Italian to honor his heritage. Nick always wanted to go skydiving, and his wife thought it might be sufficient to go indoor skydiving instead... not :)
Nick took amazing care of his family and wife, as well as their nephew Marcus, who grew with Nick over the last several years, they were like brothers, and best friends. Nick loved spending time with his twin nieces, Lila and Kennedy, who he enjoyed watching grow and learn, he loved to teach them new things. Nick loved his big sister Christina. He admired what she was doing with the children and working full-time while attending school. Nick really appreciated the guidance and support that his sister offered in many long conversations with him about life choices. Nick took the time to spend with his parents, and would be there in the drop of a hat to help them with anything that was asked. He had plans to learn Herbology with his mother, and loved to play poker with his father. He enjoyed listening to his father's stories and advice. Nick loved to spend time with his wife's family, and became the son his wife's mother and father never had. He was an uncle to his wife's nephews and niece, very close with his bonus family. He was a big brother to many, and we all miss him so very much.
Nick had a home that he took great care of and made sure everything was secure for his wife. Nick was together with Rachel for seven years, married for three. Nick and Rachel were two twin-flames and their love was seen throughout their interactions. They worked together through their differences and grew their marriage every day. Nick and Rachel adored one another. They were each other's rock, safe zone, sunshine. He called her his butterfly. He had two fur-babies in addition to all of the adopted individuals he took under his wing. Nick was a big brother for many and a role model for all.
It is now very clear how many other lives he has touched in his life. We miss him, we love him, and he will always be with us. He now begins his life journey.
