That is truly tragic. I wish all of you the best.
If we do pins and get to nationals I’ll be sure to get you one.
On a side note: How did Nick communicate? Did he require some sort of computer aid? (I ask because I’m currently writing a a single button text interface, the code for which I plan to contribute to Stephen Hawking’s open-source project, and I am interested in hearing how people actually use this kind of thing in the real world.)
My and team 219’s condolences go out to your team and above all, the Gabel family. They will be in our prayers. Is a shame that anyone has to experience such a loss. At least he was exposed to FIRST and the wonderful doors it opens. Im glad that he got to take part. Any part of the team is as important as the next, im glad he got the chance to work with you guys.

On behalf of team 1168, I’d just like to express my deepest sympathies and condolences to your team and the Gabel family. Words are really inadequate here. 
sorry to hear the news. Team 233 sends your team the best of wishes and hope you have a great year. if my team can do anything to help just let me know and i will do everything i can to get you the help. See you at the championship.
I am terribly sorry to hear this. On behalf of team #168 [The Flashbacks] we give our most sincere apologies. We will of course pass by team 63’s pit if we make it to nationalsp of course.
That is so sad, but it is good that FIRST had a chance to touch someone in such a special way. Team 1108 will be sure to stop by team 63’s pit and put one of our pins. You will be in our thoughts team 63.
My personal deepest sympathy to Nick’s family, friends, and teammates. So many of the young minds with MD are brilliant and miraculous in such marvelous ways. My little angel, Gracie, at just 3 years old is brilliant in her own marvelous ways fighting SMA (a form of MD).
Once again, endless prayers and love to Nick’s family, friends, and teammates.
MD is such a horrible thing, yet miraculous things come from those who have MD…Take a look at Oprah Windfrey’s “friend” the young boy who was a poet, and a philospher on life when he was only 12…Sadly, his body could not fight his illness anly longer and he passed away late in '04.
My thoughts and prayers are with your team, and his family, and may you keep strong through all of this…he is probably looking down right now at you as you progress on your robot…he probably would’ve loved to seen it before he passed away, but now he can…
Team 1388 sends their condolences to Nicks family and to your team. Should we make it to Atlanta we will come to your pit.
Team 365 would also like to send our condolences to Nick’s family and your team for your loss, 365 will have pins and anyother MOE stuff that you guys would like at Pittsburg and at Nats.
On behalf of team1009, our condolence to Nick’s family.
I’m 130% sure my team would love to sign Nick’s memory book. I know I will. Team 007s thoughts and prayers go out to Nick’s family, and your team as well. We’re very sorry of your loss.
God bless to your team and Nick’s family.
My condolences to Nick’s family; this story has truely touched my heart.
I’d love to let non-CD FIRSTers at Championships know to sign the book as well.
I am very sorry to hear this. A death is hard but when its some one you grow close to its almost unbearable and the pain and loss is great. I will pray for nicks family and for team 0063. I am sorry for your loss.

I´m so sorry to hear about the loss. Team 1382 sends their condelences and deepest sympathies to Nick, his family and to Team 63. I feel truly saddened, because fortunately I’ve never had any experiences of this sort, and I’m not sure how I would react to this kind of situation…
Best wishes…
