Quaver Nick

My good friend Nick, who I met on Ward 41 back in 2016, was given his "farewell dose" of morphine at his home this afternoon.

He'd won many battles against his illnesses for over a decade, before losing this last fight.

He was a big man with a big heart, always happy, and one of the kindest people I've ever met.

Our condolences go out to Graham, his husband, who was with him to the end and who let us know the sad news today.

Until we meet again, Bob.

Bob Harris. He'd been a regular inmate/outlaw at the LRI for years before I started my stint in 2015, I can't remember many days when I was there and didn't meet him. Always talking, always happy, always funny and always loud, everybody knew him and everybody liked him. He passed away in September.

Until we meet again, Bob.
