All I can say is that Nicholas Anthony Forrello was one of the funniest,craziest, most kind people I have ever met in my life. His smile said it all. Anyone who knew him, knew his smile was the greatest… I will forever remember all of our memories and all of the times we had jammin and dancin to music, or just sitting around in his livinig room joking around. I will always love and remember Nick for everything he ever did for me, I will see him again one day. R.I.P. Nicholas Forrello
Barb Gerald says
My heart breaks for all of Nick’s family members. I may never have met him, but know that he must have been a very special, wonderful young man. I know this, as he wore the same contagious smile that my friend and his dad, Tony wears. Stay strong – and know that we live in the shells that we call humanly bodies but for an instant. We live forever in a better place, where you’ll all be able to share Nick’s beautiful smile again. Lots of love to Tony and family. I’m so sorry that I’m just hearing of this…if you need anything, remember, I’m only a phone call or Q away!!

Nick- I am so sad to hear you’re not with us anymore. It has been a long time since we spoke, but I’ll never forget the times that I did spend with you. Seems like yesterday your were my “boyfriend” in 6th grade.
I wish you didn’t have to go so young, but you are with god now and everything will be ok. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May you rest in peace.
Mellissa Baumann says
My precious baby boy, I never imagined your life would be cut short; however, God must have needed your kind soul to help fullfill his work to show people the “correct” way to live life and help your family learn to understand your “Hell” to try and help others in any way possible. I refuse to say goodbye, so I will say, “See you soon my beloved son” I will miss you more then anyone can imagine, please be beside me to guide me in peace until we meet again. I LOVE YOU, LOVE MOM
Heather Brown says
nick, i am so lucky to have met you. you have given me some stomach hurting, rolling on the floor laughing great times. Ill never forget any of our memories, like: running through the screen door, giving me the nickname “chunk” because i like to eat, alot.. singing spice girls, dancing at your house on the fireplace to barbie girl, and sooo many others. There will never be another like you. I didnt realize it until you were gone, but you really had a huge impact on me. You will always be in my heart and i know your lookin over me, probably making fun of me for some of the stupid things i do. i love you Nicholas Anthony, you were a truely amazing person!
Kristin Vanbergeijk says
I’m so sorry that I could not be at the memorial to say goodbye. It hurts so much that you are gone, but I know that you are in peace now and I will see you again someday. You were such an amazing person and friend. There was never a moment that you couldn’t make me smile. Thank you so much for everything and for always being there for me and all of your friends. I will never forget all the memories we shared.The old school crew will never be the same without you, but you can count on us to keep your memory alive. I miss you fire and I love you! You’ll forever be in my heart. My prayers are with your family.
Whitney Wadsworth says
Nick,
There are so many things I could say about what an amazing person you are, but everyone already knows that. You were one of a kind and always had everyone smiling.
Whenever you were around you would just beam with love and compassion for others. You will be missed by everyone but NEVER EVER forgotten! I am sure you are in heaven making everyone laugh as I am writing this! 🙂
I am glad I had the honor of being friends with such an amazing person!
Love ya Nick,
Whitney
Tracy A Sampson says
Dear Nick,
This is your great aunt Tracy, I never really saw you much since you got older, however your mom and I talked often about you-almost daily. I can remember the day you were born; I came up to the hospital to see you, before Riley whisked you away-you were a cute baby.
The memory I can remember of you and all the kids, is: that picture of all of you on Halloween (dressed up) on Grandma Davis’s floor-you were right in the middle and all of you looked so cute.
You were such a happy and smiley child, even in the hospital, I only wished you could have stayed that way-life sometimes deals some of the best people blows in which one may feel they cannot find their way out.
You have angel wings now, so I know you are soaring like an eagle, freedom from your hell on earth. Someday, we will meet again in Myrtle Beach. : >)
Love always, you’re great aunt

Michele Kavanaugh says
Hey Nick!we had some GOOD times together! My favorite time was most def. the Childrens museum though.getting in for free, dressing up in the scuba costumes, getting kicked out cause it was closing time, then making the staff give us free passes because we ’just paid our money to get in and we just got there’! haha
I am so used to calling you when I have a bad day just to talk, or come over and hang out with you.. and Friday came along last week, and I was going through my phone and had to pass up your number.. I think that is when it really hit me that you were gone and aren’t coming back..! no one will ever replace you Nick, you were one of a kind.. You had an effect on my whole family.. you built my little sister self esteem up when she was younger and feeling down about her weight, she LOVED when you would come over cause you would always call her ’Model’ :)Thank you for all the good times and memories! i’ll never forget you!<3(Big Hungry)
Kelley Joseph says
Dear Nick,
Your Mother and I will miss you more than you will ever know. We will miss the birthdays, Christmases, and other holidays that we spent together as a family. We will miss the 2am phone calls just to ask a random question. But mostly we will miss our every day visits when you would come over to hang out.
I will miss our talks about life and love. I will miss your contagious laugh, your sense of humor, and your wonderful smile. I will miss your compassionate heart and generous soul. All of these qualities made you the young man that we were so very proud of. All that keeps going through my head is “Why”? We will never know exactly why, but what will keep me going is that God graced me with a wonderful son for 6 years and for that I am grateful. I love you and you will forever be in my heart.
Your other Mom,
Kelley
Tina Crabtree says
Sweet Nick….where to begin. I feel very blessed to have been able to be a part of your life, your laugh and the joy that you brought to sooo many people. I have so many memories of you that I will cherish forever. You will be greatly missed. God had a purpose for you, it is just sad for the ones that you left behind that we won’t be able to tell you what you meant to all of us. You will live on forever in our hearts. I hope that we can all find comfort in your peace. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of your family, friends and especially my dear friend Missy.
Love,
Tina

Nicholas,
We watched you grow from a little beautiful baby to a handsome young man. You always were so adorable and cute as a little boy. Your mom was so proud of you!!
It has broken our hearts that you are no longer here with our family physically, but our memories will last forever.
We are thinking of the entire families and extending our deepest and heartfelt sympathy.
Love your cousins,
