Nookie was one of my very best friends, and my cross the street neighbor for more than 30 years. Nookie’s kindness and generosity to our family was so much appreciated and I miss hm and his one of a kind laugh dearly. For probably a 10-year span, Nookie would drop off a loaf of Italian bread at our house every Friday after work. In our 30 years as friends and neighbors, I never had a conversation with him where we did not laugh. Our neighborhood will not be the same without the mayor of Cross Creek Court. Rest In Peace Nookie.
Lynne and family
So sorry for your loss. He was a great fun-loving guy. Cherish your memories until you see him again.
RIP prayers and sympathies 🙏
Nookie was a very close crime of my father’s, Bill Sandrock. He was like a younger brother to my father. My family has very fond memories of the times we spent with his family. Nookie was a very unique, fun loving individual. We’ll never forget him.
I worked with Nookie for 30 years. He was a great mentor and friend. He had vast knowledge and common sense of the industry and was happy to share it.
We all have our ups and downs over the years but he smiled through it all. Truly a blessing to have known him. He made the world a better place.
Rest in peace my dear friend.
Dear Lynne and Family, Sending you our sincere condolences. Nookie was a great person who we had the pleasure of knowing. The Bruder Family
Nookie was “one of kind, not to be duplicated”. He will be sadly missed by all of us who were fortunate to have known him. Rest in Peace for all eternity my friend.
