B.C. man who died of rabies infection 'the best big brother and person'

Nick was returning from a trip to Tofino when he pulled over on the side of the road and swatted away a bat that flew at him. He died on July 13.

The community of Parksville is in mourning, with tributes streaming in on social media remembering the young man as a dedicated Tae Kwan Do instructor at Cascadia Martial Arts. Many parents said they hoped their own children would grow up to be of Nick's calibre one day.

She said Nick, who had a smile that lit up a room, always had the best advice for her – and the "kindest heart." A GoFundMe page has been launched by supporters to help the family as they deal with fallout from his death, raising more than $22,000.
