Honorary Firefighter Nico Cassabria

The members of the Blackwood Fire Company regret to announce that our Honorary Firefighter Nico Cassabria has lost his courageous and long fight against Neuroblastoma. We can only offer our support to the family in their time of need. We ask that everyone please respect the family's privacy and we will post any details of the arrangements as they become available.

Rest easy Brother Nico, we have it from here. May you always watch over us and keep us safe as we will carry your name and memory with us forever. 

  From the Cassabria Family

At 5:17am our sweet, sweet boy won his fight against neuroblastoma. Steve and I talked to him about all the amazing things he'd done in his life, how we think he is the most wonderful child, and how much he is loved, not only by us, but by so many others as well. We told him how he would be completely healed in heaven and be able to run and do other things a 10 year old should be able to do. One of his fantastic hospice nurses came to make sure he was comfortable and soon aft...er he transitioned in complete peace.
We thank you all for your love and support of our son; it means so much to us.

Fly high, Nico. We love you to the moon and back and to infinity and beyond.

I wanted you more than you ever will know,
So I sent love to follow wherever you go.
...
You are my angel, my darling, my star... and my love will find you, wherever you are.

~Wherever You Are My Love Will Find You
