2008 Class Picture
Nicholas Charles Rauser

On December 21, 2008 Nicholas was the lone fatality in a car accident on Brookpark Road in North Olmsted Ohio. Nicholas was just 15 years old. He was memorialized on Christmas Eve by over 1,500 family, friends, teachers, classmates, coaches and all those he ever touched.  The overwhelming show of support was a testament to what a caring, loving young man Nicholas was.

He will always be remembered by his smile, sense of humor, good nature and love of sports. 
Welcome
