He was passionate about sports, especially his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs. He was a marathon runner, soccer referee and proudly collected tens of thousands of steps on long walks. He loved kayaking and overlooking the quiet water from their cabin at Caddy Lake. He enjoyed a dark English beer and made a mean BBQ'd chicken. His friendships were deep and long lasting. He loved giving gifts and sending postcards.

Nick will be dearly missed by his wife Lyn; his children Chris (Karen) and Gill (Bradley); his grandchildren Charlie, Henry, and Daphne; his loving dog Curly; and his many other friends and family.

The family extends special appreciation to the staff of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh for their care and devotion to Nick's health and comfort. In Nick's memory, please consider making a donation to the Parkinson Wellness Projects in Victoria, British Columbia.

A celebration of Nick's life will be planned in the coming months.
