This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Nicholas Knowles, who was born in Syracuse, New York on January 20, 1979 and passed away on March 01, 2007 at the age of 28. We will remember him forever. He leaves behind his mother, Shelly Knowles, his father, Melvin Youker, a sister, Sara Knowles Anostario, four aunts, Sherry Knowles, Susan Knowles, Laurie Cole and Cheryl Youker, and an uncle, Darryl Youker, as well as several Great Aunts and Uncles, Cousins and many close friends. Loved by all, Nick had a way with people. He was honest and honorable. He was gifted. He thirsted for knowledge and soaked information in like a sponge. He accepted all cultures and religions. He had thoughts on everything and loved to speak his mind and to discuss anything. Although taken from us so short, he accomplished so much. Always determined and hopeful, Nick never gave up on anything he set his mind to. Only the good die young.

Dearest Nicholas:
To honor you, I get up every day
And take a breath
And start another day
Without you in it.
To honor you, I laugh and love
With those who knew your smile,
And the way your eyes sparkled with joy,
Full of life.
To honor you, I take the time
To appreciate everyone I love.
I know now there is no guarantee
Of days or hours spent in their presence.
You are the light of my life,
My gift of love
From our Heavenly Father.
So every day, I vow to make a difference,
Share a smile, live, laugh, and love.
Now I live for us both.
So all I do, I do to honor you,
My precious, beautiful child.
Love Mom

Dearest Nick,
I've been talking out loud to you lately. Do you hear me now?
Did you hear me before? I just assumed that you could hear my thoughts and feel my emotions, can you? have you?
