Rest in Peace Nick
A tragic loss, my prayers and deepest sympathy to Rhona and family.
A great work colleague, always full of humour and friendly banter.
Very sad.
God Bless

My deepest condolences to Nicks whole family. He was my instructor on 2 courses back at the school and professional throughout. He was also a friend, gone but never forgotten. Rest easy mate.

Hi Nick, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being such a great husband to my Mum. You always had time for anyone, anything and you always put your family first. You have been taken from this world far too soon however you will never be forgotten. I’m sorry that you you never got to meet my Son and I’m sorry it had been a while since we spoke. Rest in peace Nick

I'm sending this for the Lyne family, and in particular Rhona.....What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch. We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little we begin to understand not that you died, but that your life gave us memories too beautiful and precious to forget. I will miss you Nick, we had some memorable chats in the Sunny and I was looking forward to visiting Malawi and Mozambique next year. Sadly this will no longer take place. RIP Soldier, see you in Valhalla at the final RV. 😥😥💔🙏

It was a privilege & a honour, knowing Nick and considered him as a very close friend with memories of us nattering over few drinks & cigars to set the world right which I will miss.
His loss has left a great dent in my heart and forever miss him dearly.
A salute to you sir & R.I.P

A true gent, love him to bits!!! Nick helped me through some tough times. Love and thoughts to you all at this sad time xxx

Dear Nick, such a shock to hear the news of your passing. We served our last couple of years together in Aldershot, had our Joint 22 year Regimental dinner. I feel honoured to have had you as a friend and meeting Rhona. We had some laughs and good times in the Mess. Will always remember the New Years Eve Party you came to round mine. You and another bloke presenting yourselves in my dresses you been rummaging in my bedroom. Then having a play fight with potted plants in the garden. Then you both went missing over the pitch black fields out the back still wearing my dresses. So very funny, we were all chuckling and hoping you got picked up by the Police. Happy Days. You rest now dear friend. Will never forget you. Xx

My condolences to Rhona and Nick’s entire family. He was a true gentleman with a quick smile and sarcastic comment to lighten any situation. He will sorely missed and never forgotten. Thinking of you all x

Nick it was such a shock to hear of your passing. You were a great inspiration to all who had the pleasure to serve with you. Rhonda my thoughts go out to you and the rest of the family. Until the re-org mate, take care up there. Si x

i joined the Army with Nick back in 1982 , shared the same room with him at st omer barracks , we were Army chefs . We had many happy times in training at Aldershot . He was a great guy we joined togeather and passed out of Army college at the same time . Fond memories of him xxx

What a wonderful man, father, grandad, husband, and friend. Will be sorely missed and always remembered ❤️

It was a pleasure to serve and work with Nick whist with the 3rd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers both in barracks or in the field he was an excellent chef and operator, Nothing was ever to much trouble for him. During the first Gulf War he was the kind of soldier you wanted by your side always good for a laugh and joke he kept moral high during some difficult times. Of course on return we parted hard and I will always have fond memories of sharing a few late nights and the inevitable hangovers that followed with him. My thoughts are with his family at the sad time, taken far to early in life my he rest in peace - For now it’s time to turn to the right and March off - I salute you my friend your duty done.

I met Nick in Iraq working at BDSC. We had his 50th birthday there and you were so drunk. Took me ages to walk you back to your room. Taken to early. Rhona and family my deepest condolences. Love Jason Blades

Such sad news. Taken way to early. All my love to Rhona, Chris, my best mate Dan and the rest of the family. I met Nick quite a few times at various places and always had a great laugh together mostly at the expense of our beloved club Manchester United. A great bloke and one day we will see you again for a game of poker and thimble of whisky 🥃

Rhona Lyne We never met Nick but having known you as a friend for many years I feel we did know him. Every time we spoke Nicks name would crop up mostly you were counting the days until he came home. You always looked forward to this and I know how much having Nick in your life meant. We will still speak on the phone regularly and Nick will forever be a part of our 'chats'. Take care my friend, be strong. Tony & Penny XX
