Nick was the one who was responsible in getting me actively involved in collecting pinballs, really helped me out a lot when I was a noob and we become good friends through our appreciation of pinballs. He was one of the nicest and most sincere people I have ever met and will be missed by all.
Was the owner of the High Hand playfield that I just finished and handed back to him on Tuesday.
That is really sad to hear.
From what I'm reading, he was very active within the community and sounded like the kind of guy that would take the shirt off his back for you. Pinball is a hobby that needs good people.
