As you probably know, we lost a wonderful human being just over a week ago. William C. Nichols, also known better to us as Nick, passed away on Monday, April 20. His family is partnering with the Osceola Education Foundation to set up scholarships in his honor. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to the foundation in honor of Nick. I was lucky enough to know him personally. He had a tremendous amount of accomplishments in the real estate industry. He was an Emeritus member and a Realtor® for over 40 years. He was Realtor® of the Year in 1995 and our Association President in 1997. Just a few years ago, he was honored with the Association’s very first Lifetime Achievement Award. He was well regarded; he did a tremendous amount for the community and the real estate industry. He was known for the type of person he was. If you had the opportunity to talk to him, you were lucky. He was the kind of guy where if you just talked with him, you felt better when you walked away. Personally, it was an honor to have known him and he will certainly be missed. He wrote an article on a regular basis called “Nichols-worth”. He thought two-cents wasn’t enough, so he gave his Nichols-worth. So, in honor of Nick, I consider this a Nichols-worth.
