I knew Nick Santino. He was one of those men who was involved with so many projects. He was an actor, a successful business man and involved in the community. I remember he volunteered during 9/11. He was social and an interesting person to meet and know. He had a hard time growing up and I think he felt isolated and alone at times. I’m sad to hear he committed suicide, and I personally believe he must have felt like he had nothing left and must have been suffering terrible depression. But he was a very nice person and this last crisis shouldn’t define him.
