Nicholas A. Balland

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Nicholas Andrew Balland, on Tuesday, November 26, at the age of 73. A devoted husband, loving father, doting grandfather, and respected attorney, Nicholas was known for his unwavering commitment to family, work, and the church.

He was passionate about Yankees baseball and playing golf, and he enjoyed fine dining and spending time with his family.

Nicholas is survived by his wife, Katina, children Andrew, Nerissa (Michael), and grandchildren Eli and Teddy. He is preceded in death by his son, Paul.
