Nicholas C. Kelso

Nick enjoyed 80s rock music and played the electric guitar. He was a fan of comic books, and his favorite character was Spawn. He also loved to play Xbox with his children. He was an excellent cook and a self-taught artist. He loved science fiction and scary movies, and he went to the movie theater with his daughters regularly. A favorite activity was taking his daughters for a walk in the park and then talking in the long drive-through line at Starbucks. In recent years, he pursued an interest in the stock market and day trading.

Above all, Nick cherished his family, especially his daughters. He enjoyed taking family trips to Disney World, Hersheypark, the Jersey shore, and New York City. He loved to explore unique and fun hotels, restaurants, and museums.

Nick is survived by his loving daughters, Nicole Kelso and Natalie Kelso, and his parents, David and Theresa Kelso. He was predeceased by his brother, Noel, and his beloved cat, Rorschach “Warshy”.
