Nicely put, Robert. Being the "runt" in my Trio clone groups, I ALWAYS had a soft spot for Nick, and like you marveled at his harmonies and natural vitality and enthusiasm. Two friends of mine and I attended a concert in Mentor OH years back--Bob, Nick and George. After the show, we went over to where the guys were staying--while Bob and George likely hit the sack, Nick came into the restaurant/bar and sat down by himself. We immediately rectified that, and were honored to buy him a late supper (we also ate) and basically enjoy his company for quite awhile. I'll always remember that evening, and being able to spend time with one of my childhood heroes! We still (and will always) miss ya, Nick!
