My brother Nicholas Charles Devore passed unexpectedly just weeks after his 35th birthday after enduring medical complications and cardiac arrest. Nick was a special person to many. Nick and I walked through a life that wasnt always easy but some how he held a smile, had a hug, and always passed words of encouragement. He was always willing to help out, with a heart of gold. He cherished his nephews and niece, and they thought the world of him. Nick was beyond amazing with kids. He was always encouraging and helpful when he could be even despite the demons he fought within himself. His goofy, silly nature brought smiles to everyone around him. Bringing joy to others meant the world to him.

Now, I am facing the heartbreaking task of saying goodbye to my baby brother and trying to find a way to lay him to rest. The funds raised will be used to have Nick cremated and to provide a celebration of life for him. He deserves to be honored, and those who loved him need this opportunity to come together and find closure. It’s important to me that we remember Nick for the love and laughter he shared, and give him the farewell he deserves. I hate asking for help and wish I didn’t have to, but at this moment I have no place to turn and want nothing but to put my brother to rest. I appreciate any and all help and support during this difficult time.
