"By writing or reading obituaries,we can discover ways to make our time on earth more worthwhile, more productive, more meaningful to others." Alana Baranick, "Life on the Death Beat"
"'I always read the obituaries in The Times,' I explained to her. 'They make me bloody glad to be alive.'"
I didn't know Nick in his first carrier as a singer entertainer, but I new him in his second carrier as a restauranteur at Lew Mitchell's on Jackson Avenue in Chicago.
During the 70's and 80's, a few patron friends and I would have a cup or two of coffee and solve all the problems of the day and Nick would council the lot of us.
Nick was a good friend and I'll always remember him and his little gift of Milk Duds to all the Ladies that stood in line waiting for a table.
He's in a better place now, singing a song and keeping everyones coffee cup full.
