Nicholas J. Theobald, age 33 of Wayne, passed Monday, August 6, 2018 in his mother’s arms.

Nicholas was born and raised in Wayne.  He graduated from Wayne Valley High School with the Class of 2003.

After high school he attended Morris County Community College where he studied criminal justice and in 2006 he went to the Roman Academy of Beauty Culture in Hawthorne. For many years he worked as a laborer in the construction industry.

Nicholas was a caring, giving, loving and considerate person.  He had great blue eyes that seemed to convey a deep understanding.  He was fiercely loyal and protective of those he cared for and had a deep faith that those who passed away before him were always right by his side. He had a huge heart and was always trying to help others less fortunate than himself.  He would bring home people that were down and out and give them a warm meal and a safe bed for the night trying to give them a sense that there were still good people in this world. His heart was also opened to all types of animals that he would bring home. One of Nicholas’ goals in life was to open an animal rescue. He was unable to turn away anyone or anything in need. He had a very special soul and immense compassion. The world was a better place with Nicholas in it.

Nicholas was the loving son of Elizabeth Wells and her husband Roger of Wayne; cherished grandson of Martha C. Greyshock and the late Sergeant Walter J. Greyshock; Nick was the dearly loved fiancé of Samantha Barnes of Morristown; he was the much loved “almost brother” to the late Jessica Gelok (2008); his late high school sweetheart and girlfriend of many years Amanda Schwake (2011); much loved nephew of Paul Greyshock, Christopher Greyshock, and Victoria Greyshock; he was dearly loved by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Those considering a donation in lieu of flowers are asked to donate to the GoFundMe account established to help with funeral expenses.
