Every year for the 4th of July we spend time at my Uncle's house on a lake. Many of their friends and neighbors come for the water sports, food, but best of all fireworks. Over the years, Nick has gotten to know several of the regular attendees. So, he is very aware when certain neighbors are not present. He hates to have anyone miss out on fun.
This year the neighbors across the street could not make the party. Nick took it upon himself to wiggle his way into my Uncle's expensive wine cabinet and hand pick a bottle of wine he thought would be to the absent neighbors liking. Not only did he discreetly take it upon himself to deliver the bottle, he also found a way into their house (to this day I'm not sure how). He left the bottle on the table with a note that said, "4th of July 2014. love Nick O.".
Come to find out, this was not the first time something like this had happened. The neighbors told my Aunt and Uncle to thank Nick for yet another great bottle of wine. I wish I could have seen the look on family's face when they found out this was actually round 2.
Nick is more socially aware than most "typical" 24 year old men I know. He never forgets anyone and always makes people feel special. This is why people ALWAYS remember Nick. They remember him for the way he makes them feel; as if they were the only person in the world and that they meant everything to him.
