Eli Adler-Roth wrote a sympathy message

“Nik gave me my first paid job in rowing a few years back. He was patient and good-natured as I figured out how much I still had to learn in the sport. Of all that I took from watching him, the thing which stuck out most was his unrelenting, active love for being on the water. A lesson for rowing and life. I'm so glad I was able to meet Nik and spend that season with him. He had an incredible influence on each of the hundreds girls he coached and his spirit will be deeply missed on the river.”
