Life story

Nicholas James Perry (Nick) was born on April 26, 2005. He grew up in Avon Lake, Ohio. He was an active child. Participated in soccer, baseball, cub/boy scouts, tennis, basketball and wrestling. In high school, he was a member of the National Honor Society. He went to the University of Cincinnati for college to study marketing and sports administration. During his short time there, he went on a study abroad trip in Greece, was part of the fishing club and joined the UC boxing club. He won two matches as part of the club. Forever undefeated.

Nick was a light to all that knew him. He was a friend to everyone. His laugh was infectious and his smile was big. He lived life to the fullest. He drove to Nashville to do a weekend internship for NASCAR and to St. Louis for Indy Car. He coordinated activities over summers for his group of friends, “the boys,” including camping trips, fishing charters, escape rooms, and much more. He loved dogs especially his dogs Morgan, Sammy and Rocky.

He will always be remembered and forever missed. He was loved by everyone who knew him.

Boxing Training, Nick

Nick came to me with an idea. He wanted me to make him a hype video. What was a simple favor has opened the door for me for multiple other opportunities since. Thanks Nick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jFgdqu78Hc
