Donor: Nick Massa Family & Friends
Tree Species: October Glory
Nick Massa spent any moment that he could enjoying the outdoors and the beauty of mother nature. There are few things in the world that would make Nick as happy as being by the water. Every summer, Nick would race to the metroparks with his fishing rod in hand. This tree, donated out of love by Nick’s selfless family, is perfectly placed by a fishing bank at the Rocky River.
Nick was always able to find joy and peace in nature, and this tree, planted in his memory, represents the permanence of his contagious smile, his kind heart, and his undeniable ability to put others before himself.
Nick embodied the perfect son, brother, and friend. His legacy lives on in one of his most cherished places, as well as the lasting positive impact that he left on any person who had the opportunity to meet him.
Nick’s family and friends will enjoy remembering Nick and all of the positive energy he brought to their lives by basking in the sunlight and fishing in one of his favorite places to be: the Rocky River Reservation.
