Nick Bozine age 63, Husband, Father, Pop Pop, died Saturday at home where he liked it most. There are no words to describe this man. If you were lucky enough to know him you would understand. Nick battled cancer with the intensity and strength he used to fight every battle in his life; sadly it was just too strong of an opponent. Nick was born in Philadelphia on July 8, 1948 and died on July 30, 2011. Nick grew up in Fishtown, he attended North Catholic High School and then entered the US Army in 1968. After the Army, he was a Philadelphia Policeman for 2 years. Then after an apprenticeship in the sprinkler fitters Local 692 and in 1976 he started his own Non-Union business Tri-State Fire Protection which he proudly owned until his death. Nick was a giver. He gave to all and asked nothing in return. People who met him loved him instantly. Nick’s proudest possession in life was his family. Nothing brought him greater joy, not even an Italian hoagie with extra mayo and extra onions or a bottle of homemade wine. He is survived by his wife of 42 years Veronica Ronnie nee Panno. His daughter Kim Ciemny and her husband Steve, granddaughters Isabella, Alexis and Marissa. His son Nick and his wife Tina, grandson Ryder. His brother in law Vince and nieces Valerie and Amanda. His mother Theresa, his sister Theresa Diluzio and brother Michael. Nick’s final wishes were to give a donation in his name to the Abramson Cancer Center, c/o Penn Medicine Development, 3535 Market Street, Suite 750, Philadelphia, PA 19104. Mass of Christian Burial at SS Peter and Paul RC Church, 362 Ganttown Rd., Turnersville, NJ on Thursday, August 4, 2011 at 10:30am. Interment at Gloucester County Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery in Williamstown, NJ.

Nick was always a great person to be around with. I met him when he heard usthe Emeralds singing and he wanted to hire us for an affair at his home in Harrison twsp. He always had a smile on his face and enjoyed life to the fullest. Nick will always be loved and remembered in our hearts.

Nick and I were born a day apart, we probably were laying in adjoining bassenets at St Mary's Hospital! and went to St Anne's and North together. Both schools are gone now. I'll always remember Nick with that perpetual smile and easy laugh. I saw him recently and he hadn't changed a bit. Just one of the nice guys you meet in life. May he rest in peace.

They're giving me 1000 characters which doesn't get me past the first beer let alone the Two Beers that you would indicate my start point. When we would get together we would re-live that fairy tale land we called youth. Football, drinking, family and our life experiences and the characters Elwood T and Pigskin Parsons. The fishing trips we would always start out to but never get there. I would laugh when Ronnie would tell you that your girlfriend was on the phone when I called. If anyone wants to hear those stories again I'll be glad to tell them and the cost will be as usual, Two Beers. What a ride we had and the friendships formed. More than most in a lifetime. My day will also come and I'll catch up to you guys then.

Dear Ronnie and family, I just found out about your dear husband's passing. I was so sorry to hear the news, my heart goes out to you and the children. So many good memories on Westhampton, Nick bringing over his TV because our antenna was working for the Flyers games...priceless. It is 22 years since Tony passed on August 13, 1990. Love to all.
