Nick Gutierrez...my little brother. We celebrated your life last Saturday Feb 27th in Los Angeles. It was really nice. Donald & Wally hosted the celebration, Tim did the LIVE video streaming and there were guest speakers including Tim, Todd, Curly, Mike, and me. Looked like 200 people showed up. Plenty of food and drinks. U were the only one missing. I hope you were watching frm Heaven.

Dear Nick...what a wonderful and blessed life you lived! I saw all the lives you touched in SoCal. I can tell how well loved you & David were to others by the amount of love and support that came pouring in. David, Lazlo, Darick,Tim and all your friends put together the most beautiful memorial service in your honor. I know your time was short here but your impact was HUGE! R.I.L.&P. Jean

Dearest Uncle Nick,
I'm not sure if you really knew how much you are loved. If you didn't, now you do. Your passing has reflected many lives as so did your presence. Your smile, your love, your "OMG" facial expressions will never be forgotten. There too many people that you left behind that may not understand why you were taken this soon. I love you Tio

You were the whole world to me and I'm lost without you. My love, my partner, my best friend, my rock. You were the light of my life. I learned from you how important family and friends are, and to see the purity and goodness in each person. I only hope I can live up to your example. I will always keep you with me. I love you so much.

My heart goes out to David, who misses you more than anything. I'd like to thank all those good friends like, Anthony, Donald, Wally, Curtis...just all of you for making  his celebration of life so memorable! He must have truly shined some light into your hearts to deserve such a send off! Nick, Nasario is very broken without his brother. I pray that they find peace & solace in their hearts

I will always remember your voice, your advice, your funny jokes. I find it hard to exist without you.  Maybe i will be able to accept life without you...but not now

Nick, we meet you several years back at your Mom birthday celebration it is your smile that I remember the most.....your smile could light up a room, you can see how much you enjoyed life, and that same smile showed the love & compassion your heart has for your family & friends. You will be missed so much by your family and friends.

Nick was very special to me.  I met Nick in 2008 in a doctor's group we both attended.  He had that bright smile and happy glow that I gravitated towards.  Over the years he provided me love, support, mentoring, and a true friendship that makes me smile even still.  I will miss him, but am honored and blessed to have had him in my life.

My sincerest condolences to the Gutierrez family. I just found out Nick passed away today. He was my dearest friend at UCLA in 1986. Nick was truly an amazing individual with a high emotional and intellectual quotient.  May you rest in eternal peace Nick and may your family find peace in knowing that Nick was really loved by everyone that knew him. Please see longer tribute in "Stories."
