Default Death in the NY s2k metro family

Hi all,

Not sure if any of you knew Nick Hamann whose username here was it'S2klean has passed away. Nick was a young guy from Greewich Ct who was on many of our Bear Mt drives. I do not know the nature of his passing as of yet, im waiting to hear back from a friend on the cause of death.

Nick had one of the cleanest GPW on the planet. Such a nice kid, only in his early 20's.

DATE, TIME AND PLACE OF MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR NICK HAMANN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ON MAY 22nd, 2015 AT 2:20PM THE MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR NICK HAMANN WILL BE HELD AT 1ST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF GREENWICH AT 108 SOUND BEACH AVENUE IN OLD GREENWICH (ACROSS FROM BINNEY PARK)
A RECEPTION TO CELEBRATE HIS LIFE WILL FOLLOW.






RIP Nick ! You were a great guy and will be missed!!!

I happened to run into him one day at a gas station. i pulled in with my NFR and he was on the other side of the pump with his GPW. Back then he didnt know about the Bear Mt drive and a few weeks later he met me at the same gas station and he went on his first drive with all of us. He was such a nice kid...

taken from us way to early.... I had Nick at my house (234) numerous times along with his buddy Chris, We texted each other alot in search of car parts lol, I sent him a jdm intake, that crazy carbon fiber puzzle piece for the engine bay, and those vsx-x's you see in the pic above, He is a great kid, always smiling and cracking jokes, I just spoke with him a couple of weeks ago, He was all excited about starting his car resto side biz. I was texting nick about a thousand times to invite him to my house for the big fight, and he never responded which was weird, then I found out about this tragedy thru Ed, I almost dropped to the floor, I'm still in shock, I tried reaching out to his father but didn't receive any response back, I know hes still grieving the lost of his child, A moment of silence for our lost brother Nick... R.I.P my dear friend you'll be missed.........

He sent me a txt recently that he was moving to CA, and i meant to respond and forgot. I feel bad now, i wish i had. Just a lesson that you never know when someone can just be gone like that. I hear his dad is going to keep his s2k...which is good to hear. Ill def be driving my S to the memorial..

I spoke to Nick via PM since I moved south and he moved north and we joked about the moves and filing in GPW cars in each location. We missed each other were we lived but became part of 234 family. RIP Nick. Way to early and a tremendous shame to die so young.

I recently lost another newly found friend down here that was part of my football crew. Life is not only precious but unpredictable. I will not only say a prayer for my recently departed bros but also for the ones that are still among us being great friends. Love, peace and engine grease to all my Metro and 234 family.

Im sad to see this! I originally saw something on facebook about Nick and recognized the name from previous transactions I made with him through the classifieds and when I was able to link Nick to Its2klean! It really brings it home how close the S2k has brought me to some of the members on here, regardless, of distance between!
RIP, Nick!

I met him once at Octobers bear mountain drive, he's the one who actually told me about the drive to begin with on FB. We texted and bs'd all the time after that, my buddy was actually waiting for him to return from cali to buy an intake from him... then we saw the news on FB. RIP buddy. I will be there at the memorial with my s2k.
