He was a former resident of Waretown and a current resident of Freehold. He was born in New Brunswick to Sherry and Christopher Dever. He is the baby brother of a very proud big sister, Caitlin Dever. Nicky was blessed to have spent time with his beautiful baby girl Mikayla Elizabeth Dever, whom he adored. Nicky has attended the Freehold Intermediate School and Freehold Borough High School. Nicky loved unconditionally and was always a sweet and caring person. He had a beautiful soul and was always the first person to offer help when help was needed. Nicky did not get the time to grow up and become the man he was destined to be. For those he loved and who loved him his loving light will remain forever present. Nicky worked at Wawa in Howell where he went above and beyond and had dreams of furthering his career. He wanted to accomplish many things to be the best father he could and to provide for his beloved Mikayla. Though some of his ambitions will never be, for all who knew Nicky they would have been attained given more time. In our hearts he accomplished all just by being the genuinely loving person we all knew.
