Nic was born at home in Florence district in 1933. When he was twelve the family moved to Glenholm, where he would live for the next fifty years. He and Helen (Friesen) married in 1954, and in time welcomed sons Craig, James and Sean. Nic played defence for the Glenholm Raiders hockey team, and was active in the National Farmers’ Union. He was a lifelong voracious reader, a dedicated amateur golfer and was often asked to deliver a toast or eulogy.
