Amanda also did such an amazing job putting together the DVD of Nick's life in pictures and songs. Th ese tasks were completed from her love. Also, would like to thank Jason Morris, J C and Aiden for the patience they had while Amanda was spending so much time with us and not at home. Love you all. Finally, to Linda Hall, our sister by love. Th ank you from the bottom of my heart for always being there for us. You sat with Nick every day so I could continue to work during the week.
