Colby Watkins wrote a sympathy message

“Marla, Nicole and Christopher, We are so sorry for your loss. Nick was an amazing man. He was by far the funniest Uncle we had(especially when he raised his eyebrow). Know that your entire family is in our thoughts and prayers. May Christ wrap his arms around you in comfort and peace. We love you all. Colby & Lisa Watkins”
