He was a former employee of Edward Jones and an Electrician at Farley Nuclear Plant, where he was a member of the IBEW Local 796.

Nicholas had a contagious laugh and was always finding humor in situations. He loved big, and he considered the title of “daddy” and “Uncle Bubba” one of his highest accomplishments.
