Nicholas Raymond Lamborghini Garnier III was born on September 21, 1985, in San Jose, California, to Brian and Carol Garnier. From the beginning, his bright blue eyes, infectious smile, and platinum-blond hair captured the hearts of his big brother, Tom, and his large extended family.
After graduating from Rancho Bernardo High School, Nicholas joined the United States Marine Corps. He served with 4th Motor Transport Maintenance Company and continued serving as a Marine Corps reservist for seven years. Although his journey took him to many places across the country, he was always a California BMXer at heart.
When he wasn’t riding, Nick could often be found surrounded by his devoted friends, lifting weights, making people laugh, and cracking jokes. He was intelligent and quick-witted, with a tender heart and a genuine gift for making those around him feel valued and cared for.
Later in life, Nick spent his summers working on the water. He also became an experienced carpenter, taking great pride in renovations, rebuilding projects, and the work of his hands. Whatever he was doing, he brought his humor, energy, and unmistakable spirit to it.
Nicholas was deeply loved by many, and the lives he touched are better for having known him. Although his time with us was far too short, the impact he made will endure. He will be deeply missed and forever loved by his family, his friends, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
Nicholas is survived by his father, Brian; his older brother, Tom; and his precious daughter, Monroe.
Rest easy, Nick. Semper Fi.
