King,
I have been reading on social media that Nick passed away this morning from a heart attack. If this is true, my prayers to his family and Wild Bill and all the other people that were in Nick's life.
I can honestly say, I really enjoyed watching Nick and how he tackled his addiction.

What a horrible loss. Nicks struggled at times but was a great leader. My sympathies to his family and the crew of the Summer Bay. To Captain "Wild" Bill - may you continue to be a great caring mentor as you were to Nick.

So tragic. What a blow to to his family and Wild Bill and crew. Did he fish this past season on the Summer Bay?

What sad news, I just saw it on CNN website. It's so hard when a young person passes away, especially a talented deck boss like Nick. I guess this terrible year isn't going to go out quietly.

Nick was only 33. How very sad. He was always so full of life that it is hard to understand how he could be gone. I pray that he has found peace.

TMZ is reporting that it is drug related. I really hoped that he finally had the demons under control. Too many young people are dying from drugs.

Sad news. I'm reading the same stories all of you are reading,and don't have any inside scoop to add.

Working at a homeless shelter, I have seen this kind of thing before. The individual kicks the drugs and stays off for a long period of time - or the person returns from rehab to the street. Drugs tempt them again so they return to the same dose of drugs they had last taken. Unfortunately, the dose is way too strong after the person has been clean for a while so that individual dies of an overdose. It's always very sad.

This can happen to people on heavy duty prescription meds, too if they stop taking them for a while on their own and then start them again.

I saw the same post. Sean Dwyer is in the photo too...so seems likely he's still on Dwyer's boat. The facebook post and some of the banter in the comments (some of it involving Sean's mom and Bill) seemed oddly light-hearted right after Nick's death...but maybe I'm reading too much into it.
